The first cunningham exercise. As you can see i am in perfect kit for this lesson, as always, and you can see from my face that i am really concentrating in this video so i know that i can perform the exercise to the best of my ablitiy.
At 0.02 seconds you can see that my foot is lifted off of the floor but my toe is not pointed and i am also leaning to the side a little but not much, this is a big improvvement from the first time i had done it. also you can see at this time that i am pulling myself upright and really concentrating on what i am doing. At 0.07 seconds you can see that we have started on the left foot, my toe looks a little more pointed this time and i am not leaning so much because i was really concentrating on pulling myself up and not leaning. i need to work on working through the floor as on both feet i have not worked through the floor. At 0.11 seconds you can see that i have started to lean to the side more as got faster and i have not quite mastered standing upright and not leaning to the side yet as it gets faster. At 0.14 seconds my foot is touching the floor so i have started working through the floor here but i need to work through the floor the whole way through. As this video comes to an end these start to get faster, and the faster they get the more i look like a pengiun!! At 0.22 seconds you can see my plie, i dont think this is a good plie as i dont go down to my fall potential and one leg is coming out wider than the other.
Improvements:
- to work through the floor when doing this excercise
- to keep body upright throughout and not sink into hips
- to point toes at all times
- improve plie at the end
- dont lean from side to side as gets faster
How to improve:
- practice this exercise slowly and make sure toes are pointed, working through the floor and not leaning, gradually get faster and dont move on further untill i can get it at that speed
- practice plies and make hamstrings and quads more streched so it doesnt hurt as much when going down
