The exercises started by focusing on one limb at a time and then progressed to two limbs. The two-limb exercises incorporated both unisons and alternates.

As before, I’m using a dot to represent the right foot (RF), right hand (RH), left hand (LH), and left foot (LF). THREE-LIMB DIAGRAMS: SEQUENTIAL We’ll start with the familiar grouping RF, RH, LH, as shown in the diagrams that follow. These are the three limbs we’ll be working with for the rest of this study. You can explore the other groupings on your own, using the same concepts […]
