Contact with hands and feet

In experiental anatomy, we focused on moving through the floor through the hands and feet. We had a score of just moving across the floor in one direction, starting to move standing and gradually working your way to the floor and with this, I decided as a personal goal to focus on keeping my feet and my hands particularly grounded. It is an awful habit of mine to overbend on the pads of my hands and cause unnecessary tension in my wrists, which always leaves my wrists aching afterwards.

I found that I like to move rapidly across the floor but actually, whilst slowing down I got all the benefit out of it, as the slower I went on my own, the more fluid and diverse my movements were across the floor.

We then carried this score out in partners and, again, this made all the difference in the fact that the self consciousness of what I was doing went completely out of my head and it felt like a duet, again with alot more varied movement than how I normally move.

I notice I have a tendency to walk on the outside area of my feet, but also walk on the central area of my feet. When lifting off the ground and landing, I find that the ball of my foot lands first alot of the time.

Feedback from Katye was to open out my back and to work on alignment but there's a nice softness in my joints and bones that she's noticed, I've also noticed it myself.
Lastly, I found that my hands didn't hurt at all after being in contact with the ground for about half an hour, but before my hands would ache and hurt after just a few minutes on the ground because of arching my hands and feet.

I need to continue with this skill.
