In this tutorial, Jordan Rosin (Producing Artistic Director, The Ume Group) demonstrates how to do a basic shoulder roll. This is a fun and beginning-level acrobatic/gymnastics trick also used in martial arts and parkour.
ABOUT THE UME GROUP
The Ume Group is a New York - based dance / physical theatre ensemble dedicated to sharing traditions and developing new work. We believe that a good performance artist is constantly learning, creating, teaching, and performing. We are hailed by critics for our “commanding, physically impressive performances” (The Village Voice) and “risky physical vulnerability” (nytheatre.com) which basically means... we do a lot of handstands and funky butoh stuff.
