Basic Spinal Wave

EVERY DAY IS A SPINE DAY! The Ventral/Dorsal Spinal Wave is a basic yet powerful movement that I recommend everyone to develop and improve. This simple practice will positively affect A LOT of things in your body: * wash away old pain loops from the nervous system and erase nagging aches and twitches around the spine and torso * Improved sequentiality and transmission and hence improve performance in things like locomotion, throwing, balancing, fighting, dancing, overall adaptability * Improved health, organ and general function as the waving will move, shift, unglue and massage things around the center axis that might have been stagnating for years How do you develop and practice the basic spinal wave? 1. Stand half of your foot length from a wall, facing it. Touch one point at a time to the wall: nose - chin - chest - top of ribs - abdomen - pelvis and back to nose.... make sure to touch the wall ONLY with that point and replace each contact point with the next one. Pause briefly at each segment. Practice for 5-10 min, 1-3 times a day 2. After establishing first phase for a few days and feeling comfortable with it, remove the pauses at each segment. Lightly brush against the wall with each point along the chain and try to achieve sequentiality and fluidity. Practice for 5-10 min, 1-3 times a day. 3. After feeling comfortable with second stage remove yourself from the wall and practice without touching anything. I recommend filming an initial 60 seconds of your waving, review it and then take one or two cues to work on and practice for 5-10 min, 1-3 times a say Commit for 30 days to get a real glimpse of the potency of this practice. Film your efforts and post with tags #everydayspineday #movementculture #idoportal also please share on the Movement Culture Facebook group - After 7-10 days positive changes will start occurring in your movement and sense of well being, after 30 days your spine will be completely transformed! I’ve implemented this with thousands of students, pro athletes and injured folks over the last decade in great success and I know you will get similar benefits. Much love and wishes of good health and good movement! * Music: Dean Blunt
