Bend the left knee out to the left as you roll the leg and pelvis. Then the right leg also bends to the left, snuggling behind. Moving the legs together and apart is the “scissor” movement. Eventually you lengthen the left leg to the left, like a hurdle.
Add variations with the arms to the scissor movement: The arms slide towards the feet and away and you tap the shoulders on the floor to soften the upper back and chest. In the end the legs, pelvis, and spine learn something new about supporting the leg movement.
TIP: If for some reason you need to roll to the right, reverse the instructions.
