Or is this more in the line of the top instructor of the system? Curious. Thank you all for your replies.

I had sorta hoped it would be more like a "spiderman" character, though. Sounds like you have a good idea of what you want to do. I really like the idea of being your own "what-if monkey". My concern would be similar to the one already voiced, that it would be way too easy for this to become an almost purely mental game for all concerned. One way to avoid that would be to set up physical exercises or scenarios, and then to discuss people's responses. Would be pretty time-consuming, though. I'm personally inclined to teach fundamental physical skills directly, letting people learn them, practice, them, and really "get them into their bodies". At that point, with a good fundamental "movement vocabularly" you could work scenarios and then apply the Analysis - what worked? What didn't? Why did ... and etc. Just my thoughts.
