Part 4. I'm gonna turn the mat now so you can see me from the front. It's gonna make a lot more sense when you see me from this angle. Okay, so just look.
Part 4, straighten your right leg out, inhale. Don't bend your knee. As you exhale, plank, leg out to the side and then try to hook your thigh on your triceps into a low push-up. Alright, you don't try to lift the back foot, you just try to stay in a low push-up with the right leg out.
Push back up and step your foot on the outside of the right hand. Crescent pose with the right hand back like this and then step forward three taps. Crescent pose with twisting arms on the other side. So it's basically just Jenga, capoeira Jenga.
Let's see, we started with the right, so we do three. One, two, three. Left foot forward, build some momentum with the arms, cross-stepping your right foot behind your left and then swinging the left leg all the way around like a kick. Like this.
So you have left foot forward, back like this. So it's a 180 degree kick and then continue kicking with the same leg all the time. Turn around and kick with the left leg again. Boom, ending up in the same position.
So this was a 360 degree kick. The first one was 180, this one was 360. And now another 360 kick but with the hands down. Okay, so repeating.
Build some momentum, kick left leg, spin around, kick left leg again and then finish off with the hands down, kicking here, ending up in a squat. Right now you might have no perception about what the use of this is but trust me, take my word for it, you did the first series and that felt good, right? This is gonna feel even better when you get the hang of it. But the choreography takes some learning.
So just quick recap. There, boom, three taps, three taps, three taps and then build momentum, kick left, boom, left leg behind you. 360, 360 again, end up in a squat. Continuing the movement, you were coming from the right over to the left and then hands down, kick your right leg out.
So we were doing everything with the left leg standing. As soon as we come down, we switch and we just do the right leg. That's an easy way to remember it. Left, left, left, right, right, right.
Okay, so kick the right leg out, look forward, sit on the same leg but move the thigh in front of the chin. So you were here and now you're there. So you're crossing, your legs are crossed. So this is actually a really nice stretch.
If it would just do this pose alone, this would be a super tight nice stretch. Come up, so we did the right leg, the right leg and now the final thing with the right leg is the kind of the six step in the breakdance which looks, not in breakdance like this, but this is how we do it in the series. So you're basically just swinging the right leg around, jumping over, bump, bump, jumping over, bump, bump. So, ba, ba and the one and the two and on the third you jump up into a three-legged dog.
And finishing down doggy. I'm just gonna show the second side and not say anything. You will, you can just observe and see if you can remember what we were doing. Done.
I switched there. I used to kick with the right leg, one, two, three, now the left leg. One, two and ba, ba and up. Three-legged doggy ending up in down doggy.
That was part four.
