Jump up, and land so quietly and so still that you could be a statue.
Jump and stick
How to do it
- Land on the front of your feet, then your heels.
- Knees bend to soak it up, and point out, not in.
- Freeze for one whole second. That's the hard part.
- Nothing at all
- Enough floor to lie down on, arms out.
- Land soft: knees bent, knees out, feet flat.
Watch out for this
Make it fit you
The right version is the hardest one you can still do properly. That is not a kindness, it is how this works.
Easier
- Step up onto a low step and step down softly, landing still.
Harder
- Jump forward a little way and still land perfectly still.
Can't jump? Rise onto your toes, then lower slowly and hold perfectly still.
Sitting down? Press your feet into the floor hard, then relax, and notice how still you can be.
