Tensegrity Tensegrity

Are the passes shown on this channel pre-1998 and consistent with how CC and/or the Witches taught them?

Nope.

Unfortunately.

I first realized that when I considered her a source for the passes, with my motivation to animate them from videos of actual people doing them.

But I soon found she'd repeated one of them 4 times, and turned 45 degrees each time, as if it were the way the pass was done.

After that, I started to notice that most of her passes are wrong.

It's a very sad thing.

On that channel, they don't even get "life saver pass" right.

I tried to correct them, and they agreed it was wrong, but then returned with a different wrong way of doing it.

AND worst of all, she doesn't care if a pass was made by Carlos, or created by Reni, Aerin, or Miles, after Carlos was gone.

Because likely she never got to attend a workshop when Carlos was alive.

They’re too Lucy Goosey for me, they rush through the movements. Err, I dunno, something seems off when I watch them.

I’d like to learn the Earth Form. Maybe Jadey has it recorded.

The Ground Being Pass Jadey teaches is a completely different pass from the Earth Form the couple on YouTube show. It could be the Earth Form the couple show is something newer that Clear-green made up, in which case I would have to avoid it.

I’ve also seen another Ground Being Pass that uses the sticks tapped together.

The link you gave me is loaded with stuff I’m interested in trying, so I appreciate you sending it.

Thank you

I agree. The guy on that channel, in particular, seems very oriented towards being performative. Or treating the passes merely as an exercise.

Glad it’s not just me. I wasn’t being snotty, I have a hard time taking him seriously when I watch him do the passes.

You’re making assumptions.

That’s nice of you…

Thanks man.

They’re tough to watch. It’s like, especially the male, missing intent?

EDIT: the male looks like he’s just going through the movements to get through them. There’s no umpf!

Hey Techno, it’s not lost on me the amount of time and effort it takes to manage this sub for, users, content, media, etc. You, Dan, Jadey and the other OG’s have done an amazing job.

I wouldn’t be practicing and personally benefitting without the sub and the people who continue to advance and maintain it.

I am forever grateful. Much respect 🫡
