Dance of Shiva Change Plane Movements
Up until now all the movements we've learned are in the same plane. The Forwards, Backwards and Transquarter movement all take the arm from one position to another position in the same plane. So for example the Forwards movement takes the arm from Position A to Position B, both of which are in the Vertical Plane. The Backwards movement might be used to take the arm from Position 1 to Position 4, both of which are in the Horiozntal Plane.
The Change Plane Movement is the first movement that takes the arm from a position in the Horizontal Plane to a position in the Vertical Plane and vice versa. It takes the arm from a Position in one plane to the Corresponding position in the other plane.
In this case, Position A in the Vertical Plane corresponds to Position 1 in the Horizontal Plane (and vice versa), Position B corresponds to Position 2, Position C corresponds to Position 3, Position D corresponds to Position 4. Like the Transquarter Movement a sequence of Change Plane movements only takes the arm back and forwards between two points. So if we did a Change Plane movement starting in Position A, we would go to Position 1, then to Position A then to Position 1 again etc.
