Mirroring | Key 5 1 Relationship Ideas

Mirroring

Presenting the same physical actions that utilise the same time, spatial and physical configuration, but performed as if A is looking into a mirror at B. B therefore has to perform all the actions the "opposite" way round. Mirroring produces a very particular spatial orientation between the partners. Creating floor pathways: Towards and\or Away from; Side to Side.

Copying Action

The same actions done in time, spatial and physical configuration, but one gymnast may lead the action and the partner copies.

Lead and Follow Ideas

This may become... one go and one catch up. Either - Presenting physical phrases of action, then allowing a partner to follow, utilising the same spatial pathway, but not necessarily doing the same phrase of action.

Or - Presenting physical phrases of action, then allowing a partner to catch up by utilising the same physical actions and the same spacial pathway.
