This transition connects two fundamental poses.
At beginner level, it can be done step by step — the base turns the flyer over with three small movements.
More advanced practitioners can try the pop version, where the base gives the flyer a little momentum, allowing them to “fly” from bird to reverse bird.
Step-by-step transition:
- Cross-hand grip
The base steps onto the flyer’s hips (it can be a reverse inside star)
With the second step, the base moves to the sacrum
The third step goes next to the previous one, also on the sacrum
Here is the pop version
