A fun and simple acroyoga washing machine built around the koala pose. From koala, it transitions into one-legged back bird, then returns through koala into side star. A tic-toc movement flips the flyer into side star on the other side, and the same sequence is repeated on that side — then back again.
This washing machine starts with a bird-to-side star transition, but in all the following rounds, the bird is skipped and replaced by a side star-to-side star tic-toc transition.
