- Rotate the leg so the foot is over the opposite hip, the lower leg perpendicular to your body.

- This will be your starting position.Attempt to push your leg towards your partner, who should be preventing any actual movement of the leg.After 10-20 seconds, completely relax as your partner gently pushes the ankle and knee towards your chest.
