Hip Angulation (Pivot, Chair)
Straight Leg (Dynamics)
We started out by using hip angulation for controlling pivoted turns from stationary with a strong pole plant. Good progress was made.
Hip angulation applied to dynamics – particularly when straightening the outside leg – is best learned by using a chair and sitting on it with only one side of the bottom. This made a huge difference to Hayley’s stability, fluidity and speed – because it enabled a successful movement of the Centre of Mass.
Max improved when he realised he had to fully extend the outside leg. Now max – do that while pulling your adductors together like before – and you’ll be solid! (Yes – call it Pinamics!)
