ATM Hand holding chin & rolling #2 Amherst, 27/6/80
MONDAY 15th June
JOKE(S) OF THE DAY ZK leads off this process
This is his favourite joke because he recalls the exact time, place, situation in which it was told.
Strong positive and negative emotions can us ‘wire-in’, neurally speaking.
Moshe recommended people do lessons in a state where they could, at any moment, smile or laugh
DISCUSSION Questions and comments arising from yesterday whole group
ATM Hand holding chin & rolling #3 Amherst, 30/6/80
ATM Lifting head in X Amherst, 30/6/80
ACTIVITY Requesting, offering & receiving feedback JE
Feedback works best when it is : In response to a question
About my experience
Relevant to what’s happening now
Helps make finer distinctions
ATM Swaying to circle head, and pelvis in standing #1
Primary attentional focus — is it easy
ACTIVITY Practising giving and asking for feedback
Part 1 Model activity with student
Person A circles pelvis, keeping head stationary
Person B Hold A’s head to assist them keep head stationary
A offers B feedback on
— positioning of hands — touch
Part 2 Pairs. Do activity
Swap roles
Change partners and repeat process
Part 3 Talk, head-pelvis relationship via mobile vertebral column
Maintaining balance over base of support
— stiffened trunk
— supple trunk
Standing is an activity. We lose balance and recover
ATM Hand holding chin & rolling #4 Amherst, 30/6/80
TUESDAY 16th June
JOKE(S) OF THE DAY
Video: chicken head tracking Elan: chicken library joke Glenn: Queensland chicken joke
ATM Shifting weight over feet (no reference)
Legs uncrossed
Shift weight over R leg Go to outside, inside border, middle of foot.
Oscillate between outside-inside border
Repeat over L leg
Repeat fwd & bwd R foot, L foot
Repeat with legs crossed, R leg in front Toes of R foot, heel of L
Big toe, outside of heel
Little toe, inside of heel
Around perimeter of feet
Repeat with L leg in front
Legs crossed, shift weight around perimeter of feet keeping head still
HANDS-ON PRACTICE Pairs
Part 1 Use hands to assist partner keep their head still in space
Offer partner feedback on their touch
Part 2 Repeat process, sitting on chair
Part 3 Repeat process in standing – legs crossed, un-crossed
Part 4 Share experiences and observation with partner
MOVEMENT ANALYSIS Identify distinctions you can use to:
Whole group — grass roots process to draw out categories
— attend to your own movement
— observe another person’s movement
Time Space Rotation
Constant Arc –Trajectory -shape
Speed: Varying (dec/inc) Orientation
Initiation (what) Amount – container
Sequencing Directions
Differentiation in speed/rhythm Elevation re gravity
PRACTICE DEVELOPMENT JE
Talking to a person about the method works well when what you say evokes a conversation with the person
Process: run video in mind. What is your heart’s desire? What do you want in your life?
In small groups: talk about how FM can meet some of those desires & wants.

ATM (VIDEO) Flopping the knees standing to sitting Amherst training, 30/6/80
DISCUSSION Whole class. Questions & comments.
WEDNESDAY 17th June
ATM Hand holding chin & rolling #6 – variation
Scan: Attend to contact between back of pelvis & floor R/L differences
Attend to front of pelvis, distance from floor, R/L differences – use hands on ASIS
Move pelvis: roll head wards, foot wards, R, L
Legs bent, feet standing. Move pelvis any way. Get to know what it feels like for the pelvis to be moving.
Asymmetric sitting: R leg in front. R hand holds chin.
Go around to LEFT, to lie on back.
From back, go around to RIGHT, to sit, elbow close to floor
Oscillate around RIGHT & LEFT
Attend to pelvic movement
Sit. Elbow to floor, lifting pelvis.
Keep pelvis lifted “twizzle” feet/legs, return to sit with other leg on front. Repeat
Use this twizzling to go all way around on floor – come up onto knee
Repeat in other direction
Primary focus = pelvis keeps moving
HANDS-ON PRACTICE
Part 1 Groups of 3
A does complete circling movement from previous ATM
B & C observe and consult — how is A organising their pelvis
Part 2 B & C verbally and tactually inform A about how they organise pelvis
Groups of 3
1. 2 people observe person moving pelvis
Hands on pelvis – go for a ride/pace ; get to know what my pelvis feels like
Feedback toucher /touched
2. 2 people observe person doing ATM sequence – consult
Note; if/when pelvis stops/changes speed/ trajectory
Use hands to pace pelvis and /or verbal comment
Note Pelvis /head spatial relationship
ATM Sitting, legs bent – tilting legs
Scan: X position. Where do lines cross
Lift head with: R arm, L arm, R leg, L leg, R arm & L leg, L arm & R leg
Whenever to roll onto back, pass through this X reference position
Sitting. Legs been, feet standing. Leaning on floor behind with hands
— tilt legs L, return to middle. Find way to free R hand – sweep fwd & around to L
— Roll onto back, use L arm to assist
— Return to sitting
Repeat other side
Roll all way around. Flip legs. Organise so both feet can stand momentarily
Continue… find way to lift pelvis from floor when flipping legs
— momentarily squatting, if you wanted to you could stand
Change directions. Go faster. Coe up to stand whenever you like.
HANDS-ON PRACTICE
Part 1 Groups of 3
A does complete circling movement from previous ATM
B & C observe A. consulting about what they observe
Part 2 A chooses some aspect of their movement they wish to know more about
B & C verbally and tactually assist A find out more about what she/he wants to know
Swap roles
Part 3 Discuss experiences
DISCUSSION How can you apply Claxton’s 4 R’s of learning to your ATM practice 3 groups
Focus on RESILIENCE
Talk about resilience
Make a list
— what does it feel like to be in a resilient state
— what are you doing already in your ATM practice
— what you could be doing in your ATM practice
Present and talk about list to whole group
Guy Claxton: Building Learning Power, Hare Brain Tortoise Mind
Resilience + perseverance
+ Managing distractions
+ Absorption
+ Noticing
HANDS-ON PRACTICE Based on Lesson 1 from ATM book
2 rows of chairs, paired, facing each other. Verbally guided process
Part 1 Person A sits on chair. Moves between sitting & standing
B sits in chair, observes A, noting:
— distance between feet
— placement of feet relative to chair – close to, far away
— position of knees relative to feet
— what happens with knees when standing sitting
— movement of pelvis and head
— trajectory of head through space – curved, straight line
Part 2 Person B moves chair closer to A
Makes contact with A’s knee with one hand
Makes contact with other knee
Person A offer A feedback about their contact
Person B
— uses hand they feel more able to make better contact with
— makes contact, then establishes connection
— sense through leg to floor, feel for floor under foot
— sense through leg to pelvis, feel for pelvis through thigh
— starts oscillating A’s knee/leg side-to-side
A makes three sets of positional variations
V1 (A) Sitting on back of sit bones (do not lean against back of seat)
(B) Sitting on front of sit bones, back strongly arched
(C) Sitting high over sit bones
V2 (A) Feet closes to chair (heels lifted a little)
(B) Feet further from chair than usual
(C) Feet not too close/far from chair, feet fully on floor
V2 (A) Knees further apart than feet (bearing weight on outside edges of feet)
(B) Knees closer together that feet (bearing weight over inside edges of feet)
(C) Knees over feet
B feels for changes in how A’s legs oscillate
Part 3 B moves their chair away from A, observes, notes differences
A moves between sitting & standing. Notes differences
A & B discuss experience
Maintain roles, switch to next person along. Repeat process, this time oscillating both knees
Ending = A moves from standing to siting oscillating legs
Switch roles – go through entire process
Ending = B oscillates A’s legs. Lifts pelvis as if to stand, returns to sit
A finds way to lift pelvis higher, whilst allowing legs to be oscillated
B notes changes
B moves their chair away, observes A moving from sitting to standing, noting what’s different
A notes what’s different
Part 1 Observe sit and stand
Observe oscillating knees
Part 2
Hands on process – make contact
Establish connection
Move person pelvis, foot, knee
Part 3 Observe Sit-stand

OBSERVATION Rolling & turning head
Pairs Everyone places a sticky red dot on the end of their nose
Part 1 A lies in supine, legs long or legs bent according to comfort – maintain same leg position throughout
B observes A rolling head, noting:
— trajectory of nose (red dot) through space
— shape of trajectory – straight or curved line
— if curved trajectory
(a) does it curve foot wards or head wards
(b) is it same on both sides, or different
— Does the path end in a different place R & L relative to (a) neck, (b) shoulders, (c) neck
— Is the curve ‘tighter’ on one side, and broader on the other
B observes A turning head, noting:
— does head move relative to chest in different way
— is the trajectory different
Pairs converse about what each saw and felt
Part 2 Repeat process, but vary leg position
— legs lying long on floor
— legs bent, feet stand
— one foot positioned slightly further away from buttocks than other
— L thigh hanging towards floor, but not touching
— Legs crossed, L over R, tilted L, but not on floor
FRIDAY 19th June
DISCUSSION Questions about head rolling
HANDS-ON ACTIVITY Rolling head in supine
Part 1 Individually, with balloon
Roll inflated balloon — establish different levels of contact
— sensing surface
— sensing through to floor
— sensing surface and floor
Part 2 Use of hands, with rollers
Form trios
A: moves roller (engine, muscles)
B: paces movement of roller (tracker)
C: hands on B’s pelvis (quality control)
A actively rolls the roller
(a) L return to middle – many times
(b) R, return to middle – many times
(c) L & R varying speed & amplitude
B uses hand in various ways including:
(a) hand like a ‘board’ — flat but not stiff
(b) hand like ‘melted cheese’
Note different effect through self with different hand positions
ATM Tilting the knees #2 Amherst training, 01/07/80
HANDS-ON ACTIVITY (continued) Rolling head in supine groups of 4
Part 3 Groups of 4, 2 pairs. Optional – red dot on nose
A supine
B places hand on A’s forehead
— make contact
— establish connection
— sensing skin contact
— sensing bone contact
— sensing through to floor
— sensing skin, bone and floor
B asks A for feedback re touch, contact, etc.
Swap partners
Part 4 Observe A roll head
Place hand on A’s head, pace their rolling — use hand like ‘board
B asks A for feedback re touch, contact, are they pacing well
Swap partners x 2
Part 4 Discuss in group your experiences of this activity
ATM VIDEO Crossing the knees #1 Amherst training, 02/07/80
ATM Chair sitting, elbow clocks to standing
Sit on edge of chair. Feet standing
— Turn head: L, R. L & R
– gradually involve whole self
Arms crossed, hands to shoulders. Elbows pointing forwards.
— Move elbows: L, R, L & R
– gradually involve whole self
– Turn head opposite direction: make transition smooth, no hiccups
– move eyes with elbows
— Move elbow towards floor, ceiling, floor & ceiling
– gradually involve entire self
– pelvis back wards as elbows go down, pelvis forwards as elbows go up
– face/head resting in ‘gap’ of arms
– head moving opposite direction to arms
— Elbows clockwise, counter-clockwise, then change at will
– use movement of arms to come to stand, then sit
– over R leg, over L leg, over both legs
— — Turn head: L, R. L & R
– sense difference
REFLECTION Sit comfortably in chair. Close eyes. Reflect on this week
1. What did you find interesting? Something you would like to tell a friend about.
2. What did you want to ‘run away from’, to distract yourself to do anything else but that?
3. What did you like so much that you did not want to stop doing it?
WEEK 2
Synopsis
Staff – Susan Hillier (Trainer), Catherine Hamber (Tutor Practitioner), Jenni Evans (Assistant Trainer Thursday)
Monday 22nd June 2015
Talk – Introduction to SH and the week: beginners mind.
Exploration – learning experiences:
· Individual reflection – recall something you have learnt last week; what did it feel like i.e. what was your experience of learning? Compare that to a memory of something you “didn’t learn” i.e. felt confused by, didn’t understand at all etc. What does that feel like? What is your general view of yourself as a learner i.e. main trait e.g. “I’m a slow learner; I’m a fast learner”.
· Groups of 3 – discuss these reflections and try to stay in the language of experiences not the language of a theory or cause and effect or analysis (why).
ATM – Rolling fists I: Amherst 2/7/80
and
Observation – groups of 3:
· Pre-ATM rolling versus post-ATM rolling – what changed? Stay in observation not analysis.
Practicum – pairs: Demonstrate finding skeleton and going for ride around shoulder girdle in side lie.
Set up head support for line of face to be parallel to floor, knees bent for stability.
· Explore collarbone, scapula – whole shoulder girdle.
· Go for ride as they reach forward and back and up and down to get sense of components, carriage of girdle and relationship to chest.
ATM – Rolling fists II: Amherst 2/7/80
Tuesday 23/6/15
Talk – Q and A
ATM – Diagonal Pressing and Lifting I: Amherst 3/7/80
ATM – Diagonal Pressing and Lifting I contin: Amherst 3/7/80
Observation – Groups of 3 – diagonal rocking prone: staying in observation not analysis/theory;
noticing similarities and differences between different organisations
ATM – Diagonal Pressing and Lifting II: Amherst 3/7/80
Practicum – pairs, one supine, find collarbone and shoulder and scapula in this orientation
· Lifting shoulder and lowering slowly using hold just under spine of scapula
· Change to prone – find skeleton components and shoulder again – sensing parts and connections
ATM – Diagonal Pressing and Lifting II contin: Amherst 3/7/80
Wednesday 24/6/2015
Discussion – Claxton’s 4 Rs: Resourcefulness.
· Small groups discuss what it means, how do you experience it?
· Report back to larger group.
· Discussion about dichotomies from MF around primitive nervous systems are yes/no, on/off; whereas we have options, a range and how we use this to move from not knowing (not being able) to knowing (being able) via exploration and discernment.
ATM – Rolling pelvis I and II: Amherst 7/7/80
Including points around proximal and distal:
· experience this via tilting pelvis forward to flex hips versus lifting legs to flex hips.
· Contrast rolling fists or diagonal lifting ATMs (moving distal relative to proximal) and
· rolling pelvis (moving proximal relative to distal)
· demonstrate on skeleton
· “easiest” ie most familiar to move distal as proximal is heavier and/or habitual
· Changing the ratio means changing the organisation (stabilising one part to not move requires synergists)
· Relate to “power of the pelvis”
Exploration – demonstrate pelvis on skeleton then find on self or on each other (as appropriate)
· ASIS to PSIS = Iliac crest (ileum)
· Ischial tuberosities (ischium)
· Pubic symphysis (pubic bone)
· Sacrum and coccyx
· In pairs move pelvic 12-6 o’clock and partner “goes for ride” on iliac crests, or Sx

Thursday 25/6/15
ATM – Rolling pelvis IV: Amherst 9/7/80
Practice Management: Jenni Evans
ATM – Rolling pelvis IV contin: Amherst 9/7/80
Including exploration and explanation of why it might be hard to hold head upright whilst leaning back on forearms – feel muscles working eccentrically versus statically versus concentrically; muscles working for posturing versus muscles for range of motion.
Practicum – groups of 6:
· Four lie down in back and 2 observe position of pelvis i.e. relative to 12 or 6 o’clock
· What other clues above and below the pelvic
· Reproduce one person’s position in other 3 people (words versus hands)

· Abduction and adduction – coronal (front walls)
· Rotations – horizontal (floor and ceiling)
Exploration – groups of 4: come up with as many ways of doing this movement in different orientations and/or proximal to distal or distal to proximal or both moving. Teach other groups incl:
· Abduction at shoulder joint
· Flexion at hip joint
· Extension at elbow joint
· Side flexion at “trunk” i.e. in mid spine.

· What environment externally?
· How does it get enacted (verbs related to reflecting)
· How do we foster it in FM (ATM/FI)
ATM – Rolling pelvis V: Amherst 9/7/80 (complete in different orientations)
Practicum – groups of three: one in side lie (note head position and leg position); one in front and one behind
· One in front supports arm of lying person (90d flex) and takes time to establish “relationship” i.e. ways of the lying person allowing them to take the weight
· Then start carrying the arm forward in back to protract and retract the shoulder girdle
· One behind uses hand quietly to highlight carriage of scapula over chest wall (and other parts)
· Explore motion. Explore influence of timing
· Add in exploration of change in orientation of first person to carry arm in greater flexion and feel influence on scapula
· Take time to allow lying person to feel difference
ATM – Caterpillar wave.
