I am in awe of the foot. Its amazing design allows us to navigate virtually any terrain.
Spending time opening up the feet and ankles pays off in spades in playing, allowing us to take advantage of the support of the leg bones which in turn allows tissue throughout the torso to soften. This means muscles have the potential to move with more precision and efficiency.
Earlier we rolled the bottom of the foot with a ball. Today we are going to use body weight to move the tissue. Check out these three movements that open up the bones and tissue of the feet and ankles.
Listen to your body the kneeling motions can be intense, you can adjust how much weight you use. Release is a process that takes time.
Enjoy the process. Be curious…
