Start in the basic middle position.
Move your feet together, so that both your toes and heels touch. Keep your shins on the floor.
Slowly shift your weight to one leg.
Raise one knee to the side, keeping your feet together and your body straight, don’t lean sideways.
Look straight ahead. Don’t raise your shoulders, keep them relaxed. Your elbows should be aimed forward, the thigh of your supporting leg at 90⁰ to the floor, chin raised.
Return to the basic middle position.
Put your knee back on the floor to the position a little bit wider than your shoulder width. Move your feet apart. Your shins are parallel to each other.
Repeat the exercise with the other leg.
