Tim
Several years ago I visited Dan Miller in CA. While at his school, I did a series of exercises called Fu Hu Gong, I think. My new job has me travelling a good deal. I was wondering if you or anyone else new of a list of this exercises?
Many Thanks.

1) Lay down on the ground face down (preferably concrete or short grass). Place both arms out in front of you with the palms facing the ground. Relax (dead weight) everything below the shoulder-blades. Now begin to pull yourself along the ground using the palms of the hands and the scapular and sub-scapular muscles. You need to go about fifty feet in length for a total of 200 feet.

2) Lay on the ground face up. Place arms over (above) head hands form a triangle. Relax (dead weight) everything below the shoulder-blades. Begin to use the shoulder-blades to "walk" along the ground. Total of 200 feet.

3) Lay on the ground on your side. Arms out in front of your chest. Palms facing each other. The space between the arms should form a triangle. Shift your weight forward onto the shoulder that is on the ground. Then throw the hips up and back. When the hips make contact with the ground allow the body "roll" over into the same position but facing the opposite direction. Continue alternating this jack-knife looking effect for 200 total feet.
