LA-CAT                                                         Layered Move

   

Camel (ATS) 

   AKA: Heart

   Base Move(s):  Torso Rotation

      
      

A special THANK YOU to Sharon Moore for this revised description.

     

    Start with weight centered.

    Come up on toes, stepping slightly forward onto right foot as you press R palm down, L arm up along L side of body.  Look R.

    Sink into R foot as you extend L leg out to L side (point toe) while changing arms.  Push onto an angle mirroring the extended left leg.  Look L.

    Ease into CCW Torso Rotation with Arms Modified T.

      

Visualize: imagine a heart shape as you execute torso rotation.

     

Tip: in Fat Chance ATS the camel is only done in this one direction while for fusion it can be done in both directions
