Weekly Challenge 2024-12-30



This week's challenge is very conceptual. Some of you may recall the term "toit" (like a tiger) from Austin Powers Goldmember. Jokes aside, this is a quality we are looking for in our movements. It's "cat-like agility" in which everything in the body is working together in unison. It's relaxed and smooth but it's also tight and connected. Not tight in the sense of being stiff and awkward, but more like taut and springy. Look for areas in your movements where things feel a little disconnected, herky-jerky, and slinky-dinky. See if you can tighten it up just enough that it both looks and feels better. Using a mirror and training partner can help. So can snagging a quick vidclip of yourself. You can even send it into Member Submissions for review.
