The steps
How it works
- Chasse down the room with pointed toes.
- Add a small split leap and land on one bent knee.
- Finish with a half turn on your toes.
- Do 6 lengths.
Coaching point
Point, reach, land soft.
Safety: Land on a non-slip mat with a bent knee. Stop if your knees hurt.
Make it fun
Play it, don't drill it
Challenge
Pick a level: Less (shape only), Core (the skill), More (the skill with a held finish). Beat your own cleanest finish.
Story
You are a statue in a museum, perfectly still at the end.
