Lie on your side with your elbow, shoulder, midback and buttocks aligned with the back edge of your mat.Think shoulder over shoulder, hip over hip.
Lift your top leg to hip height and turn it out ever so slightly from the hip. Inhale, pressing your navel deep into your spine.
Swing your leg to the front and pulse it twice (like two small kicks) as far forward as it will so without rocking forward in your hips or scrunching your waist.
To stabilize your shoulders, imagine balancing stacked coffee cups on your shoulder and do not rattle the cups as you go.
Exhale as you swing your leg back, reaching for the back corner of the room. Watch those cups.
