One dancer elevates their partner off the ground, using principles of weight sharing and counterbalance to execute the lift safely.

Using the inertial force from movement to lead naturally into subsequent movements, making actions appear effortless.

The quality of movement that allows for smooth and continuous motion, a key aspect of making connections and transitions seamless.

One partner surrenders to the movements of the other, maintaining a connection and responding to their partner's direction and flow.

Using each other's weight to create balance in a position that would be impossible alone.

Creating a moment of hang time or pause in the movement, often used to accentuate shifts in the dynamic or flow.

Maintaining a physical and mental connection to the floor, providing stability and a base for movements.

The area where two dancers touch and exchange weight; it's the physical connection that's maintained throughout the improvisation.

Using the rhythm and flow of breath to coordinate with movements, allowing for increased connection and communication.

Initiating movement and direction in the dance, which the follower will respond to, creating a dialogue of movement.
