Back to Brass Knee: Transition From the Base ‘BodyVexxed’
Returning to Brass Knee from the introduction, this class focuses on conditioning the grip with a transition from the base.
Returning to Brass Knee from the introduction, this class focuses on conditioning the grip with a transition from the base.
Realizations about inverting and what it means for different body types, dance styles and lived experiences. Experiment with several modulations that address function, posture and movement with the safety of aides.
Taking 'brass' tricks up the pole without inverting learn how to maneuver into two shapes "Goddess Sit" and a variation of the brass "Knot".
Continuing to modulate with invert mechanics and techniques, aerial considerations are brought to light. The advantages to using momentum to build strength AND coordination are practiced as well.
How do you invert with a brass knee grip? This workshop class will teach you just that. Progressing from the 'knot' shape you will learn how to recline into being fully inverted into a brass monkey
Sense of position practice with upper and lower body adjustments for inverts. This proprioceptive conditioning session is a progression class that can be repeated for more body awareness and coordination.
Refresh your understanding of armpit grip as a lever and something that you can use the efficiency of force/tension instead muscular strength to execute.
To condition the body to tilt back and the shoulders to remain engaged, we'll focus on coordinating invert mechanics primarily using momentum. This, becoming a building block towards deadlifting an invert.
Start here in week one, learning the musculature coordination for cross ankle release. Condition the skin and trust from standing.
Revisiting knee-pit grip for effectiveness and performance. Become more confident the stability and transitioning component of double and single knee-pit grips.
From aerial heights of the pole, hands off the ground, practice the cross ankle release trick. Learn ways to check-in with security and transition.
How to use your knee-pit as a transition contact point is what is explored in this class session. Expanding upon knee-pit functionality, explore what takes shape through sustaining, extending, releasing and rolling through the contact point.
