This movement pattern will combine the side glide with a cross behind so we start with the side glide and we are just going to cross the foot behind. So here is our side glide, the knees behind and we cross the foot behind, arms can go out to the side and again you are counterbalancing your movement. As I go into what is partly the curtsy lunge my supporting arm is going to stay bent and arms can reach forward, I can add some rhythm changes so I'm doing a side glide, cross behind, side, start to add more arm movements to increase the intensity of the exercise and go back to the single cross behind. I can start to look towards my back heel and that is going to take a little more kinesthetic awareness of where my body is in space and start to incorporate the core into this exercise as well so again our side glide and cross behind.
