Now that you've learned the mechanics of the Unweighted Hip Lift Drop, we're going to drill it. So we're going to do it at different tempos. So let's begin with this up and down, up and down. So it's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five, six, let's speed it up, and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. While you're doing this, make sure that your head is not changing level. So, this is something you need to do in the mirror to make sure that your body is staying nice and stable, and all the movement's right here in the hip. And then you can even go a little faster. Make sure you're in time with the music. You don't want to get off time. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two. Make sure that knee is bent. The knee should be holding still, check your posture that your bellybutton's still pulled in, your chest is lifted. Practice this in the mirror.
