To ensure a balanced full-body progression, it is recommended to initially master the 10 Harmony BASIC exercises (1a-10a) and only then start learning the 10 Harmony INTERMEDIATE exercises (1b-10b). Likewise, the 10 Harmony ADVANCED exercises (1c-10c) are commenced after all the intermediate exercises are well-practiced and can be performed harmoniously.

 

Each Harmony Training student experiences the learning process differently. Some exercises might be easier to learn than others and perhaps in the beginning some exercises might be uncomfortable or even painful. Because all exercises at each level are as important as each other, it is recommended to focus on the more difficult ones, however basic they might be. This can be with the assistance of an FF instructor or a physical therapist that specializes in similar cases.

 

 

To emphasize the continuity and progression of exercises within each chain, the exercises in this section are presented according to the chains; from one to ten. The chains also progress among themselves and depend upon previous chains for warm-up purposes. For example it is intentional that 7c Turtle exercise, which increases shoulder range of motion, is one chain before 8C Dancer, which conveniently uses the freshly achieved shoulder ranges.

 

The order of learning the exercises is not important, however while practicing it is recommended to keep to the chain order and learn the exercises by heart. This makes subsequent training easier, more automated and less time consuming.
