Space Filler & Tightening Up
A jazz funk across-the-floor exercise that alternates quick, tight movement with big moves that fill the space. The first pull takes four full counts. Use resistance, bend your knees and travel from low to high.
Chaînés come next. Arms stay tight to the body, so the turns come faster and stay under you rather than traveling far. The feet open as the arms open, then tighten up for the hip roll and kicks.
The final rond de jambe swims low and ends in a punch. The upper body stays down until the punch.
