HOW TO PERFORM

  1. Stand tall, holding a rack or wall for balance, and lift one knee to about hip height.
  2. Draw a circle with that knee: out to the side, around and back down.
  3. Keep the standing leg quiet and the ribs down so the movement happens at the hip, not the low back.
  4. Circle both directions, then switch legs.
