It's interesting that while she verbalizes the tucked posture once she lifts through her rib cage her knees straighten out and her pelvis sits more neutral rather than tucked...
I thought the emphasis on over tucking was easing off? no?
I need to "tuck" quite bit to get my pelvis into neutral because of my lordosis but as a teacher I need to be aware that my students will have different postural peculiarities and require individual instruction on how to achieve safe dance posture.
Much of Hadia's course sounds like our 'safe dance' programs over here... though of course she has all the extra ME focussed goodies...
