A-Skip

Skip forward driving one knee up to hip height while the opposite arm swings up in coordination. As the lifted leg comes down, snap the foot back to the ground beneath your hips with a dorsiflexed ankle. Alternate legs rhythmically with a slight bounce on the supporting foot, staying tall through your torso. Focus on quick ground contacts and crisp knee drive rather than covering distance.
