An excellent, original, detailed article with great graphics and video animations. It’s posted on the useful Skills and Drills website.
I’ve linked to it before. And will again.
Steve Bonham, Georgia Southern University, lays out “Body Awareness Drills” that build a strong foundation for skill development.
It’s long. I’ve summarized the major headings:
THE DRILLS:
Drills for Body Segment Stabilization
Pressure Stand Standing Tips Kneeling Handstand Candle Wall Handstand Half-Wall Handstand PullMe-PullYou Drills for Sensitizing Learners to Basic Movement Patterns
Rock’n’Roll Inchworm PushAway Push-up&Away
I spent a fair bit of time trying to follow his logic.
I conclude: there are some excellent drills included. But many more and better drills could be added. This list is by no means comprehensive.
