In this VS, we will first try to conceptually understand what it means to “understand something viscerally” and then we will break down some key TRANSPOSE-focused forms.
This VS will explore a holistic approach to individualized practice utilizing several Baseworks Form as multifaceted containers to build from.
Evolution wired human brains for: (1) survival, (2) tool-making/manipulation, (3) efficiency to avoid perceptual bottleneck. As a result, we are typically very good at knowing where our head is (so that we do not hit this very important part against something) and where our hands are (so that we can manipulate objects efficiently), but the
The image of what a proficient practice outcome looks like is often represented with an element of aesthetic awe. Getting to any level of maximum proficiency however is always preceded by a lot of micro ah-ha moments combined with a failure or two. And they are often taken for granted. The reality is that the
We all have the ability to refine our movements in a way that allows us to better control the movements. Although there is a tendency to associate skillful movement with something exclusive to athletes, dancers, professionals immersed in movement, any well-learned movement is a basic skill that allows us to better interact with the space
Conducted every month, the 1st, 3rd, 5th Saturday mornings from 9:45-11:15 until July 3. Each session is facilitated by Baseworks certified instructors with a particular focus on progressively building a deeper understanding of the Baseworks Key Movement Principles through repetition and analysis.

A physical practice most often works toward developing stuff like strength, flexibility, joint mobility and coordination. When some or all of these things don’t get immediately dialed in, anyone can be left feeling deficient. And sadly, from outside, we look at someone’s superficial level proficiency in any of these things as credible. What we don’t
Most animals are constructed in a way that their bodies are bilaterally symmetrical. As human beings, there is a natural tendency to find aesthetic beauty in what is more symmetrical versus asymmetrical. In Baseworks movement practices, we make a conscious effort to work on both sides of the body equally in a balanced way, at
When we reduce the intensity of muscular contractions and combine them with Micromovements, we increase the amount of sensory feedback from the muscles, engage finer muscle fibers, and have more attentional resources to allocate to our muscles without fatigue. At the same time, by engaging more muscles then necessary to perform a particular movement (and
