I started today’s class positively as I haven’t been having problems with my foot/ankle injury for couple of days, which has been nice! Today’s class was fun and extremely energetic; I look forward to Geoff’s class every week! It is nice to be able to really allow the back to really get involved with movement.
Today I really focussed on gravity and using gravity to support my movement. For example hanging over the legs in parallel, really allowing the head to be heavy and the arms relax, letting gravity to pull my upper body down. This gave me the greatest stretch of the hamstrings. I also need to think about dropping my shoulders and releasing the tension when hanging over. I remained to think about using gravity when performing the centre travelling material. I really let my body move and use gravity to help me move through the space and aid my quality of movement. The quality of the movement is really important. Throughout class, I really tried to create the different qualities required for release technique. Making sure my lower body is a sturdy base for my upper body, arms and head to be released and free to move. The quality of movement was really nice to perform.
From today’s class I can really feel how to involve the back into the movement material in order to create a nicer quality of movement.
