PELOTITAS | C4: Pushes, spirals, and voleos.

We study:

• Pushes and releases during the pivot.
• The quality of movement in forward and backward ochos.
• Flexion with the push toward the ball as one integrated action.
• What internal spirals are like.

Sequence/exercise:

We worked on exercises to practice pivots individually: we used the hands to help push into the floor and pivot. The exercises are simple, so we can focus on detail and the motor behind the movement.
The biggest challenge: understanding the importance of bringing QUALITY to the DETAIL, so that it later becomes quality of movement.

To go deeper, we recommend Intensive C3 and C4; class #30 and #87 will also help you reinforce concepts related to spirals and pivots.

‘We do deliberate practice to master the task, not to finish it.’
