Freaky Friday Basket Weaving



Freaky Friday Basket Weaving

As you can see in the above photo, the muscles of the torso are complex and interwoven. This image can be helpful when trying to keep the abdominal muscles engaged and strong.

Picture a woven basket, and how the weaving of the fibers transforms them from loose and bendable into to a solid, strong object. Their interrelationships creates the integrity of the basket.  Now, think about how your muscles are designed in a similar way, and remember to “suck them in” and lift them up to create a strong center.

Basket weaving for dancers!

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #22k:
“Imagine the muscles of the abdomen woven like a basket.”
