"We're trying to go with the left. Take the right foot away from you and turn your left toes in so that your right heel is in line with that left ankle. Take your prop in case you need it and lay it down, but stand it up to start off with. Take your hand against your hip and bring your pelvis forward. Take your right arm down, get off the left side of the body by reaching up with that left hand. Reaching up with that left hand you can hold it right up high and you can lower the right hand right down towards that floor, but turn your face up towards the left hand. Now, that's where that block comes in handy, you can rest your hand right up on the block, you can lay the block down for security, or you can take your hand right down to the foot, but in any case your eyes stay on that left hand. Lift up, breathe in deep through your nose and exhale, another deep breath in and exhale and another deep breath in as you reach and lifting up with that left hip. Breathe in deep again and exhale. Now you want to continue to feel right to the inner thigh of that right leg. What you want to feel that left arm extending up high, another deep breath in and exhale, now release come all the way up and your arms come right down. Shake it right off."
