WaterDance I: The Footsnake

Alexander George demonstrates movements from the WaterDance I repertoire. The Footsnake is the signature move of WaterDance. Nothing approaches it on land or in water. It is a full-body wave; the body assumes its most elongated, hydrodynamic shape. The entire physical body, from head to foot, is integrated together again and again by each wave. The Footsnake is a huge wave with an amplitude of several feet between its round phase and arch phase. It is a powerful wave that travels quickly across and along, with excellent leverage at the ankles, such as holding the arms could never provide. The Footsnake is a free wave, without the same degree of concern for the neck that waves initiated from the head necessarily entail.
