[00:00] on basic and then the body roll. 5, 6, 7, 8. From here I rotate, I go up and down. 5, 6, 7, 8. From here I go up, I stop, I want to make sure I'm 100% here and from here my hips go forward, I unlock, I go back, I relax my chest. The moment I start transferring my weight, I pull left and I come back to weight neutral.
[00:27] Same thing on my right. 1, 2, 1. Basic. 5, 6, 7, 8. How basic? 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Unlock my hip from here. I relax my chest, I start traveling back in the same position from here.
[00:50] Once I'm on my left, I want to open up my chest, find my axis, open up my chest all the way up and unlock my head.
[01:00] From here I transition forward in this position and relax and find my natural. Yes, no? Yes, yes.
[01:08] Okay, then we worked on a partner connection exercise. What we wanted to work on here was paying attention to matching attention with our partners.
[01:16] Both of us have our friends engaged, elbows not going behind our body, shoulders down, soft bend in the knees, and then we want to basically match tension.
[01:26] So whatever I am giving, my follower wants to match it. So we worked on doing 3, and then relax.
[01:34] And then 5, and then relax. And then 10, and then relax.
[01:38] Notice the way that we increase tension is by shifting our weight to the front, not increasing the tension in our arms.
[01:46] Okay? So with this connection, we tried a pattern from the first week, starting from a rock step.
[01:52] I breathe. And 1, 2, up. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Up and over. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
[02:03] Then, I'm going to do it in this direction now, so you guys have both angles.
[02:06] Then we tried doing the chest dip. Notice that when we start doing the body rolls here, my partner's palm is a proxy for their chest.
[02:14] So good cue for my followers to practice keeping that palm connected, their arms connected to their torso.
[02:20] And 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. And 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. And 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Down and up.
[02:36] Okay? Now the pattern. We started with a V-step.
[02:40] So I'm going to go step together, keeping my friend engaged, open, tap.
[02:46] I'm going to prepare a turn, and I'm going to step diagonally back, 45 degrees with a step, tap, step, tap, while I track my follower's torso.
[02:55] I go step, tap, I'm connecting here, 2 o'clock, 10 o'clock, push the ground up, and down.
[03:03] And 1, 2, 3, 4, chest dip.
[03:06] Down and up. Leading with my hip at the end of that.
[03:10] Then we do a basic on the hips tightening. Prepare a turn.
[03:12] 1 and a half times.
[03:14] And basic, 6, 7.
[03:18] Okay? Good?
[03:19] Alright.
[03:20] Mishima has been out.
