Three bodies, three ages, one shared journey. Christian, Adi and Louella walk through the 12 stages of infant motor development — and document everything, in real time.
For 12 months, we are retracing the path our bodies walked in the first 12 months of life. Foetal position. Crawling. Rolling over. Sitting up. Standing. Walking. Each month, one stage. Each stage, a rediscovery.
This journal documents the journey as it is lived — not as it should unfold. The surprises, the resistances, the discoveries. Three different bodies, three different lives, the same floor.
Former high-level athlete turned body explorer. 25 years of research, a thousand lives traversed. He discovered awareness through movement.
Connected within the memory of the body, with a true sense of what life represents. The counterpoint that enriches every observation.
20 years old. No school, no education through the intellect — nothing but movement. What happens when a young, trained body retraces the path of the newborn? An incredible observation to witness.

The improvisation — a body expressing itself from within. Bodily intelligence at work.

Silent familiarisation. Integration continues.
Five days of silent familiarisation with Stage 3. Integration continues without a written entry.
No entry this day. Integration continues in silence.
No observations this day. The exploration integrates silently into yoga practice — that is already an answer.
No observations this day. A deliberate choice — the body too has the right to be silent.
