Point your toes and kick your heels toward your butt to engage the hamstrings. Keep shifting your weight forward to lift your feet off the mat. Spread your shoulder blades wide and slowly shift your weight into your hands and engage the core. Gaze down toward the mat just beyond your fingertips. Lightly press your knees high against your triceps, near your armpits. Lift the pelvis up slightly and bend the elbows while rotating your forearms in towards your midline. Spread your fingers wide with the middle fingers pointing forward. When you hop, bring your kicking knee in towards your chest and heel towards your butt.” This will stop your lifted leg from leaning too far backward.įrom Malasana or garland pose, place both hands onto the mat directly below your shoulders. “Pro tip: Reach your lifted leg up towards the ceiling.

Stack the standing foot directly below your hip with a slight bend in the knee.
