On one, hop on the balls of both feet, and then bend the knees and descend into a grand plié. Thighs should not touch calves. Knees should be extended as far to sides as possible.
On two hop lightly on the ball of the left foot, remaining in the plié, and raise the right leg forward. The right leg should be bent and turned so that the heel of the right foot is in front of the left knee. The toes of the right foot should be pointed downward.
Repeat on the next beat, exchanging working and supporting legs.
On one, hop on the balls of both feet, and then bend the knees and descend into a grand plié. Thighs should not touch calves. Knees should be extended as far to sides as possible.
On two, quickly rise out of the plié, hop, and land in 2nd position with feet flat on the ground.
Take care not to jump or land on the heels, as this can cause injury.
On the first beat, hop on the balls of both feet, and then bend the knees and descend into a grand plié. Lean onto one hand.
On the second beat, kick the leg that is on the same side as the supporting hand into the air, holding it straight above the head. At the same time, bend the other leg so that the foot approaches the knee of the first leg. The dancer is inverted on the supporting hand.
This step is usually performed as a solo in a Kozak dance or a Hopak.
