Stand with your feet hip width apart with arms by your sides. Looking straight ahead, step onto your left foot and move your right leg forward in a large circular movement from left to right. Now step onto your right foot and repeat with your left leg. Repeat this left leg/right leg repetition 10 times.
Scissor Kicks
Lay your back flat to the ground and raise your legs up to a 45-degree angle. Swing your legs open, crossing your left leg over your right leg returning to the open position.
