Creativity in Instruction. Rain Anya & Saffron Van Rossem discuss creativity as instructors. Scroll past the first 2 min where we struggle with technology ;)

Take aways from this conversation

*
Foundational concepts of a creative approach
🌀Curiosity
🌀Slowing down and incorporating mindfulness
🌀Opening up options, rather than moving by habit or default
🌀Forming new movement pathways
🌀Embracing creative challenges and solving puzzles
*
*
Making Creativity approachable
🔹Provide clear, specific structures and prompts
🔹Find small ways to encourage an inquisitive mindset
🔹Start with exercises that emphasize the personal experience, eg. eyes closed
*
*

Join us for one of our favorite dorky shoulder drills
Micro Pull-ups!
*
*
In this drill, we are working smart and small. This movement is tiny but mighty!
*
*
🏁Set up:
🔹Engaged hang with feet on the floor
🔹In chair position with hips under shoulders
*
*
💪🏼Drill:
Pull with the elbows until you hit a micro-bend position
*
*
✅ Alignment Checks:
🔸Are you still in "external rotation" with the shoulders?
🔸Is there a little space by the ears? (mid-range position)
🔸Did you pull with both shoulders symmetrically?
*
*
😅If keeping external rotation is a challenge (it is for most of us!)
✔️Try using an underhand grip (reverse grip)
✔️Try adding a resistance band
*
*
This drill is all about moving slow with intention, and really tuning into what your body is doing. How did it go for you? What did you notice?
*
*
Also, we want to hear from our community about what sort of content you find helpful. Do you like these longer format explainer tutorials? Or do you prefer something more bite-sized with catchy music and titles? What topics should we cover next? Let us know in the comments.

I found this little loopity-doo slack drag entry into belay when I was lesson planning for my Slacking Off workshop about a month or two ago. I had completely forgotten about this until I was looking back at my camera roll the other day.

My old lady Aerialist brain says "jeez, how did we ever remember aerial sequences before smartphones!?" Am I the only one? 😂
*
* Watch until the end to see my FAVORITE dorky way out of a z-wrap belay. (Yes, there are 2 types of belays...want to learn more about belay theory? Click the Belay for Days link in our linktree)

TIPS:
🔸Keep the core engaged as you lower the legs towards the floor, towards a hollow body position
🔹Only go as far as you can maintain your form and SQUEEZE the glutes
🔸Return and pull the legs as close to your chest as possible BEFORE lifting the hips
🔹To help lift the hips off the block, think of pulling the legs even CLOSER to the chest while pulling the belly button towards your spine
🔸Roll through your lower spine to initiate the lift
🔹Stabilize with a posterior tuck in the pelvis
🔸Remember to breathe throughout the entire exercise
🔹Use an exhale to help with the hip lift moment
