The Floorwork Initiation

Identify the first rule of floorwork: stepping versus sliding. Practice conscious stepping only when momentum or level change is needed; otherwise slide with hands on the floor.

Master the fetus roll from a fetal position, rolling around while keeping hands and feet on the ground to maintain fluid floorwork. Prioritize movement quality over flashy steps.

Explore the side roll in floor work, keeping both hands and feet on the floor while bending the opposite leg to let the leading limbs travel smoothly across the surface.

Learn the tunnel in floorwork initiation with neck safety at the core, the five percent rule, candlestick progressions, transferring weight to the shoulders, and anchoring with the feet.

Learn to weave side roll, foetus roll, and tunnel into a flowing floor work sequence, starting with a finish roll to loop back to the 1990 anchoring position.

Master floor-level movement by keeping the center of mass close to the floor and sliding the hands and feet, then transition into a 180-degree spin by pushing from a hand.

Discover how the foetus roll and wizit connect to form a visit sequence from lying down to sitting, ending in a 1990 position to create a looping movement for sentence-building.

Explore the floorwork initiation sequence as a transition from the tunnel's end into a new position and then begin again, ending with a half fiddes roll.

Master the second rule of floorwork by clarifying starting and ending positions, applying efficient tension, and balancing mellow floor flow with explosive movements influenced by fencing and contemporary dance.

Explore the third level of floorwork, with the bomb off the floor, and apply capoeira-inspired rule movements to transfer weight efficiently and move with minimal energy.

Practice shoulder rolls from the candlestick position, letting one foot down to let the other fly away until the belly meets the floor, then rise back up.

Master transitions between floor and standing levels in floorwork, using the tripod position and leg extensions, merge shoulder rolls, with sitting as the intermediate, finishing in a squat.

Demonstrates floorwork sequencing with sugar roll, fruit roll, and side roll from the 999/1990 starting position, including a back candlestick finish and a dive to come back up.

Explore a floorwork initiation sequence: shoulder roll from sitting to back, elbow sit-up, tunnel transition, and momentum-driven leftward travel with the right leg as support.

Develop floorwork from a 90/90 start with a knee slide and circular knee slide, emphasizing deceleration and catchable motion for smooth tumbling.

Master improver floorwork through a guided 180 backslide transition, arm positioning, and controlled lunge sequences, then flow into mermaid transitions and rolling to the back, emphasizing soft landings and anticipation.

Develop floorwork by moving from standing into knee slides and bump spins, while applying the continuity rule to blend transitions and changes in level into an organic sequence.

This intermediate improver sequence sharpens floorwork initiation by refining the whip and backslide, with the around-the-clock to the Wizzit transition and continuity-focused practice.
