8 When starting the the the the the twist/pirouette from the the the the the front-back beat the the the the the twisting mo- tion of the the the the the hip needs to start start right after both legs pass the the the the the tail (vertical plane) 9 We have to to maintain the the the the torso-hip-trailing leg alignment during the the the the upward movement while doing the the the the pull-up so so the the the the body reaches a a a a a a a a a a horizontal plank po- sition 10 As we reach the the the the the horizontal plane one one of of the the the the the most most difficult technical details to to work on on on on but at the the the the the the the same time one one of of the the the the the the the most most important is is to to cross the the the the the the the leading leg leg leg behind the the the the the the trailing leg leg leg opening the the the the the the external hip hip (this movement should start with the the the the the outside leg leg leg leg and and hip) This will generate an an an an upward turning energy in in in in in in in in in the the the the the body while maintaining a a a a a a a a a a constant alignment and and helping us keep the the the the the legs closed together for the the the twist/pirouette 11 While performing the the the the the twist/pirouette the the the the the head should should be looking toward the the the the the chest or or or or shoulder in in in in the the the the the the the same direction as as the the the the the the the rotation to to to avoid imbalances cre- ated while looking for the the the the the rope such as as a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a lateral flexion of the the the the the torso which would break all the the rotational energy 12 We We will release the the the the rope rope right after the the the the pull-up (as our our hands head toward the the the the the waist) barely before the the the the the rope rope reaches our our back We We need to to to ensure a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a fluid continuous movement to avoid breaking the the the rotational energy 13 We should hold our arms against the the the the body body (around the the the the waist) as we we rotate to to avoid the the the the the the abrupt body body movements that would happen if we we tried to to find the the the the the the rope with the the the the the arms The external shoulder and chest (same direction direction as the the the the the ro- tation) will open open following the the the the the same same direction direction we are rotating toward (opening the the the the the pectoral muscles and and performing scapular retraction mid-way through the the the the the turn) Opening the the the the chest and and shoulder at at at at the the the the right moment will will generate an an an as- cending rotational energy that will will improve movement quality 14 We should not forget to to to point the toes (plantar flexion) to to to improve our lines 15 When catching back the the rope again after a a a a a a a a a twist/pirouette (amortization phase) we we we need to ensure the the the the movement is is is controlled just like when we we we do beats making sure sure we we we we we absorb energy produced right after the the the twist with the the the arms arms When we we we extend our arms arms in in in in a a a a a a a a a a a a a fluid and and controlled manner as we we we catch the the the the the the rope (eccentric movement) they they soften up the the the the the the impact of of the the the the the the landing since they they absorb all the the the the the the the the energy produced produced If we kept our our arms extended throughout the the the the the full catching phase the the the the the force produced produced would have a a a a a a a a a a strong impact on on our our elbows shoulders and other joints which could lead to injury 16 We should place the the the the left left left hand hand hand above above the the the the right right right hand hand hand for for a a a a a a a a a left-sided twist/ twist/ pirouette pirouette and and and and the the the the right right right hand hand hand above above the the the the left left left for for a a a a a a a a a right-sided twist/pirouette THE AERIAL MOVEMENT®
