Physie Tip of the Weekby admin ‐ June 26, 2015
Long Line Balance
- Raise the leg backwards passing through a toe point then, once in an upright balance, take the body forward
- Ensure the body remains in the same shape as an upright balance, that is slightly arched
- Ensure that both legs are straight
- Ensure both legs are turned out
- Hips need to be kept level and not rotated to assist the lifting of the raised leg
- Be careful not to let the body drop to the floor – keep the chest up, shoulders back and neck relaxed and elongated
- Ensure the lifting and lowering of the leg is completed with control
