- Begin standing
- Raise you heels, legs straight. Feel the midline of your body, pull you body in around it, and slide right up it.
- Stay on the balls of your feet (not too high) and bend your knees over your toes. Keep your torso long and stable. You are rotating the legs outward at the hip so the knees go over the toes. Use those inner thighs.
- Knees bent, body tall, press your heels to the floor.
- Squeeze your legs and butt lightly together to come too standing perfectly balanced on your feet.
