progressie - progression
Along the entire breadth of the court there are five stone steps, 90 centimeters deep and 20 centimeters high.
In the four step corners I have placed bamboo-sticks which have the same length as my body with outstretched arms.
The sticks are kept standing straight by sacks filled with sand.
Stand on the highest step, arms stretched, holding the stick straight I walk backwards with little steps until my feet meet the end of the step, the stick standing in an angle.
I do the same with the next steps/sticks, with each step making a wider angle bridging the distance with my body.
The last step is my physical limit: the distance I am bridging is 3.60 meters.
