Side Kick Through
From all fours with the knees hovering, lift one hand, turn the hips open and kick a leg through under the body, then return and go to the other side.
How to do it
Setup
On hands and feet, knees bent and hovering just off the floor, hands under the shoulders.
Steps
- Lift one hand and turn the hips open, threading a leg through under the body.
- Balance on the other hand and foot, the free hand at the chest.
- Draw the leg back to all fours and kick through to the other side.
Common mistakes
Knees touching down between sides: keep them hovering in the base. Supporting shoulder sinking: push the floor away with that hand. Rushing the kick: turn, reach the leg long, then come back.
Breathing
Exhale on each kick, inhale returning.
