Mini ChiBall Choreography

Good evening. Welcome. I'm your teachers tonight, Michael King. And tonight I'll just tell you a little bit about the class we're going to do, will be doing a plot is choreography. Using the cheat ball. I teach different styles of co bloodies classes, classical mat, modified mat equipment work. This type, it was a class is really when we put the sequencing of the movements together and create combinations. Um, it can be done over weeks building very slowly choreography. But tonight I'm going to try and show you all the choreography in one in one class. And what I'm using today is the cheap cheapos from Australia. It's a combination of aroma therapy, color. Uh, the whole program is using, uh, ty Cheves, um, yoga philosophies. And the, what I like about it is, first of all, it feels great. As you know, we always use props in velocities and this ball is a great size to use.

Plus I love the color and I love the smell and I think it's a good addition to bring in to, uh, to the classes. Um, it's fun, isn't that, so let's go ahead and let's get started. I'm gonna ask you to start standing up. We're going to be doing 10 tracks of music tonight. And the first track is what I call the preparation track, which is to get our bodies ready. So just stand behind your mat and stand on the wooden floor and just, um, with your feet apart. Just holding onto your ball just very gently in front of you.

So before we start moving, let's just remind ourselves. Think about your feet. Your feet are pushing into the floor firmly and your shoulders are dropping down your back, your spine is long. And just think behind that ball, your pelvis, your pelvis is not tilting forward or to think back, but it's heading in a very good alignment. And of course now switch on those deeper muscles or the pelvic floor agenda is pulling that negative is fine just to support our buddy and then close your eyes and focus on the breathing. Breathing into your nose and breathe out with your mouth. Think about that lateral breath and feel the little space between your arms and ribcage opening up as you breathe in. And as you're breathing out, lengthen your spine a little bit more. Remember, breath is very important.

I'll be cuing the breath as we go through the movements. Always think about breathing out on the greatest effort. It'll help you a lot. Open your eyes and let's start with the en. And as you're breathing out, lengthen the spine again. Can you?

Well, your right arm will lose the ball until the ceiling lift up and bring it back down into a little balance. Push up and come back. Yes. As you're doing it, think about your shoulders, staying down. Second level up. Push up and come down. No flexibility. Push and reach out. I guess [inaudible] out and lift up a smoother.
