Seated Single-Leg Foot Circle

The seated foot circle one foot at a time, so the other rests and the attention stays on one ankle.

How to do it

Setup

Sitting tall on the floor, hands behind the hips, both legs long.

Steps

  1. Circle one foot slowly through its widest range.
  2. Keep that knee pointing up; the turn stays in the ankle.
  3. Go the other way for the second half, then switch feet.

Common mistakes

Knee rolling with the foot: the thigh stays still. Toes clawing: keep them relaxed and let the ankle lead. Rushing the circle: one slow circle beats three quick ones.

Breathing

Steady throughout; never held.
