6/ Leg Holds<br />
Arabesque<br />
- Normal ‘stage’ pitching position<br />
- The flyer starts with her hands<br />
on the base’ shoulders<br />
- Once the weight is over the<br />
base, he then transfers the other<br />
hand to the flyers thigh<br />
- The flyer then releases and lifts<br />
the chest<br />
Alternative arabesque<br />
7/ Standing on hands:<br />
Stepping from shoulders to hands<br />
- The base extends the arm to<br />
receive the flyers foot<br />
- The flyer transfers the weight<br />
to this foot and then pushes<br />
with the other foot<br />
- The base receives the other<br />
foot with the arms still<br />
extended, then settles to the<br />
shoulders<br />
Part2/ Hand to Hand Balancing<br />
At this point we need to look a little closer at the points of contact between catcher<br />
and flyer. The following chapter was written as an article for the British Gymnastics<br />
technical newsletter, Gymcraft. The author was Fabrice Berthet from the Ecole Nationale<br />
des Arts du Cirque in Chatellerault.<br />
