How to Step Forward w/ Michael Taylor

GREAT video! Such a simple thing. You want to step the foot up to a high runners lunge; not swing it. 

Next time your instructor tells you to inhale your foot up to a 3-legged dog then exhale that foot up in between your hands to a high runners lunge, notice if you swing it or step it.

When you make that change from swinging to stepping, you’re probably not gonna get your foot as high (because you have to rely on your strength and flexibility versus momentum); that’s okay. Just step the foot as high as it will go. Then get your hand to just pick up that foot and get it where it needs to go. You’ll get there one day!
