Tumbleweeds with legs bent and legs more or less long.
Lesson Outline
- Sit, knees open, hold each ankle with the hand (same side). Rock L & R.
- Only to R, until R knee touches floor and R elbow in front of knee.
- Other side. Alternate.
- Rest. (For some reason, has its own number in transcript.)
- Go to R, and lift L leg with L hand at the same time, returning feet together as you sit back up. L knee moves away.
- Other side. Alternate.
- Go to R and lean on R elbow, lift L leg, head goes down low, until you roll onto your side, and return.
- Other side.
- Now sit and hold ankles with legs almost straight, and go down to R on R elbow, head low, lift L leg. Roll to back and return.
- Other side.
- Roll to the R and continue to roll to the R. Full circle.
- With legs bent, go down to the R; different now? Continue to come up to the L.
- Same with legs long.
