Stretch, Hold, Move, & Leap! The Science of Yoga, Pilates, & Ballet: Data & Graphs for Science Lab: Volume 4

By M. Schottenbauer

This book contains graphs showing data from a variety of complex movements found in yoga, Pilates, and ballet classes. Examples include a yoga sun salutation, Pilates splits, backbend, and inverted bicycle, and a series of ballet leaps (Glissade, Saut , Soubresaut, Pas Assembl , Pas de Chat, Sissonne Ferm e, Royale, Grand Jet , and Cabriole). Graphs show x-y coordinates plotted against time for the positions of the hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, wrist, and/or head during exercises. For comparison data, the Appendix also contains graphs showing a ball flying through the air, falling, and bouncing on a carpet. These data can be used for lesson plans by teachers and parents. Note: These biophysics data are samples from one individual and are not representative of the population.
