Start: Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding one weight in each hand by your sides, palms facing each other. Then shift your body weight to your left leg and lift your right knee up and balance on your left leg. Stand tall by lengthening your spine and lifting your hips away from your left thigh.
 
Technique Tip: If you feel unstable, try holding your right foot close to your left calf, or rest your right toe on the floor.
