Perfect poise...

Nuba tribesman240.jpg © George Rodger, 1949

If ever a picture demonstrated good, healthy posture it's this iconic photograph of a Nuba wrestler by George Rodger. He has just won a match and displays a wonderful quality of upright, free poise; lengthening and widening in stature yet very free and supple. Naturally he's displaying great fitness and strength, but there's also an underlying quality that has nothing to do with his muscular build. Look at his right hand and wrist to see how free and loose he is, yet his postural muscles are supporting him well; loose and tall at the same time. Great poise, superstar stature and 100% confidence. It's a quality that we are all had as young children, and he has retained it into adulthood.
