FYF CHALLENGE #13: Position Play

LAUNCHED: JUNE 5, 2014

THE PROMPT:

This one is called #positionplay ... sexy huh! So the concept is, exploring a singular technique or shape and trying to make it feel different, or look different for you and your style. As always, take your time, move slow, and be patient with your exploration. It may take a full song to find the moments that really work. For my example here...I picked an open sit position (where one leg/hip is higher than the other, but the premise is a inner thigh hold or sit position). Take your time exploring how you can get in and out of it, play with all the free limbs and parts of your body you can articulate that are not contact or anchor points ... in my case that is my lower legs, my arms, my head ... all free to change and be creative! This exercise will hopefully open your mind to your more

fundamental techniques, that they are still exciting and new just by the way you approach them. You may also find musicality in tricks that you didn’t give yourself permission to explore before. If you need a suggestion on a position here are some ideas: any leg hang (inside, outisde, brass monkey), sits, layouts, shoulder mounts, climbs, jade, handspring, spin shapes on static, spin shapes on spin mode, the possibilites are endless! Let’s do this, let’s explore!
