Objectives
Develop torso and pelvic stabilization while lying on the side, keeping the body steady as the moving leg challenge balance and alignment.
Use the co‐contraction of the abdominal and back muscles to maintain equilibrium as the leg moves, creating a stable central axis.
Increase strength and control of the leg and hip muscles to support precise, well‐organized movement.
Connect with the deep internal support system to keep the body stable in the side‐lying position without collapsing or shifting.
Focus on breathing to synchronize the movement.
