Ten principles.
A connected approach.
- Use a consistent framework for stroke observation
- Recognise the ready or attention instant
- Understand preparation as organisation for the next phase
- Identify the loading position before acceleration
- Analyse the main acceleration phase
- Relate contact to the action that produced it
- Understand follow-through as continuation and deceleration
- Observe the end of movement and readiness to recover
- Connect the key instants rather than copying isolated poses
- Select and retest the phase relationship that limits the stroke
Put it into practice
A narrated phase-by-phase observation of one stroke and its limiting transition.
