Small Pivot - What to Practice - Follower
None
- 00:00
- For the followers, we wanna be sure that we step
- 00:02
- to the bowl of our foot
- 00:04
- and then we wait until the leader actually stepping
- 00:08
- around makes us pivot.
- 00:10
- We also wanna make sure that when we move,
- 00:14
- we move with our whole body.
- 00:16
- And there are a couple of things
- 00:17
- we can do to make that easier.
- 00:18
- If we're not on the body the way David
- 00:20
- and I just were, our hand here makes it easier
- 00:24
- because when he starts moving, I can use
- 00:28
- that to tell me to pivot.
- 00:32
- If we're closer, I can use this part of my hand, of my arm
- 00:35
- and have the same effect.
- 00:40
- And if we aren't on his body, this is a,
- 00:42
- this is a really cool one
- 00:43
- because it's just is what makes me move.
- 00:50
- So shall we, can we show that one one more time?
- 00:52
- Because it's so, I really like it.
- 00:58
- So can you see that the whole of me moves once
- 01:01
- and that I waited for him to make it happen?
- 01:03
- One of the things that often goes wrong is
- 01:06
- that followers will bend in their waist
- 01:08
- or their ankles first.
- 01:09
- So if I'm showing you the wrong, if I'm the follower
- 01:13
- that here would be the wrong, she pivots me and my top moves
- 01:16
- and notice my feet didn't move.
- 01:17
- What do you notice? The top is moving. My foot isn't moving.
- 01:19
- This is wrong.
- 01:23
- Yeah, that's pretty obviously wrong,
- 01:24
- Right? And so
- 01:25
- I want you to ask, what's the energy leak?
- 01:27
- What is the thing that's moving that shouldn't?
- 01:30
- And right here the answer is my ankle and my waist.
- 01:33
- Or maybe here I have my waist strong and my ankle gives.
- 01:37
- And so you wanna take that pressure
- 01:38
- and send it to the bottom of your foot right from the
- 01:41
- beginning.
