The transition from Paschi pose to Back Bird is smooth and accessible. The flyer releases their ankles and begins to lift their extended, closed legs toward a vertical position. The base places their foot against the flyer’s sacrum, providing balance. As the flyer shifts onto the base’s foot, they smoothly transition into Back Bird.
Advanced version: The flyer lifts themselves without the support of the base’s feet, relying solely on the base holding their upper arms. Once the flyer reaches a vertical position, the base places their foot against the flyer’s sacrum, allowing the flyer to tip forward. At the tipping moment, the base bends their legs to facilitate the transition. Both variations are demonstrated in the videos.
In this video, you can see a slow and controlled transition from Paschi pose to Back Bird. The base securely places their feet to provide stability, ensuring a safe and smooth movement as the flyer rotates into position. Movement Link
In this video, you can observe how the base keeps their feet off the flyer until the flyer fully straightens. The flyer actively lifts their legs while pressing their arms toward the ground. The base constantly adjusts to maintain balance as the flyer shifts position. The movement is slow and controlled. Throughout the transition, the base’s feet remain positioned behind the flyer’s back, providing a safety point in case of imbalance, allowing the flyer to lean onto the base’s soles if needed.
