How about jet propulsion !!!

Theory: Take deep breath in desired direction of travel.
        Rotate head 180 deg
        Blow out with puckered lips
        (whistle tune if other crewmembers don't mind)
        Repeat until either:
          - feeling dizzy (breathe in paper bag)
          - enough delta V
          - destination reached (could use retro technique to soft land)

Skillful lip control would gimbal the thrust vector to maintain
attitude and thrust direction.

I'll experiment in 2D next time I go ice skating.
