Wall and Back Reach (Patreon)

• If you’re new to LMA, start with our table of contents

I am using the wall as support as I look over my shoulder and raise my leg to touch an imaginary target behind me. I am exploring how switching my arms shapes my movements. It's a seesaw motion, and I seesaw down the wall. When I've gone far enough, I switch directions. If you don't have access to a wall but have a partner, rely on each other for support.

Since you are aiming with your foot, you need to be able to see your foot when you look over your shoulder. The counterbalance from the seesaw motion and the support gained from the wall or partner will give you added stability for accuracy.
