TFBD Fall 2009: Class 4 Notes

You guys must be waiting for these class 4 notes... I know it!

Here are the new movements:
1. Sidewinder arms - keeping the range of motion for the arms from shoulder height and above, start with the right arm bend with the back of the hand close to your right ear, push the hand away from you ask you lean your torso to the left, at the same time the left arm is drawing up. Once the right arm is close to being fully extended, pull the right arm up and towards to the top of the head as you push the left arm away from you and as you lean towards the right. Continue in a smooth manner, keeping the movements and transitions comfortably slow.

2. Back to Front Figure 8's - press the right hip towards the back right corner, curve the hip towards the front right corner, then pull back in towards center; continue with the left hip pressing back towards the back left corner, curve the left hip towards the front left corner, and pull back in towards the center. Continue in a smooth and comfortably slow manner.

3. Torso rotation - imagine as if you were drawing a heart on the floor with your chest. Start with the chest at center, press towards the front left diagonal, then curve to the back left; keeping the lower abs engaged, round the torso to the back, then curve to the right, and round up to the front right corner, then pull in back into center. Finish with an up to down undulation. Repeat to the right.

See you all next Thursday, October 8th!
