What functions are common to the both shoulder girdle of pelvic girdle?

They are designed to work together. The muscles that link the two girdles, the lats, the gluts wit the lats and trapizies, the long muscles that drape the shoulders that intertwine the with muscles attached to the pelvis all work in concert with movement. It has been noted by F.M. Alexander that all movement of the body begins with that muscle point located at the small of the back. The only way to experience the composite movement of the shoulder girdle and the pelvic girdle is to 1. Be fortunate to be brought up by a parent that has free movement of the shoulder and pelvic girdles, so as an offspring you could image properly, or 2. Stretch. If you have the desire to imulate those with good movement, poise and grace, then this very desire suggests that you do not have a certain poise and grace exhibited by those with graceful shoulder and pelvic girdle movement. The only recourse you have is to stretch so that your muscles lenthen to allow your skeleton to expand. The muscles will eventually maintain a lengthening and your shoulder girdle and pelvic girdle will function together. Please note that this change you're asking of yourself is grand. It is a life style change. You must drop all of your baggage and start by doing nothing. This period is doing nothing may include that you do the opposite of what you have been doing. i.e. putting on your pants initially with the left leg insted of the right. Start downstairs with the left insted of the right leg. Imperceptiably lengthen your neck and spine as you stand in line at the grocery store. You'll need to regain a spiritual strength as you gain confidence in youself and take your inate power from your friends and family members. God Bless.
