Exploring Differing Base of Support

Satoko Horie

Share this event:

Base of Support is a term used to refer to the area beneath an object or person that includes every point of contact that the object or person makes with the supporting surface. Bringing awareness to the Base of Support is an excellent way to find stability in the way we exist, from standing, sitting, and walking, as well as how we move in space.

In this VS, we will pick up different forms/movements with differing Base of Support and look into how Baseworks utilizes the contact with the Base of Support and the specific body part in contact with the Base of Support to enhance stability and contribute to building strength. The session will also introduce and explore one of the Baseworks Movement Principles, Full-body Distributed Activation.

This VS will be approximately 20% theory and 80% practice.

What are virtual Sessions?

Virtual Sessions are a “live” educational format offered on the Baseworks Practice Platform.

Whereas the Online Practice Sessions are designed to provide the opportunity to develop your practice through repetition, the Virtual Sessions are designed to provide real-time feedback and insight, which can then be re-applied during the Online Practice Sessions.

The level of interactivity in the Virtual Sessions is dependent on the interest/involvement of the participants and may vary from session to session.

Each virtual session lasts from 60 to 90 minutes.
