Inhale, lift your hip up, walk your feet forward, legs bent or straight. Exhale, draw your navel towards your spine, slowly lift your legs off the ground, one at a time or both together, reach your legs up high. Hug your outer hips and inner thighs to the midline, press through the balls of your feet. To come down, slowly bend your knees and lower your feet to the ground.
