Stagger your standing position, stepping one leg forward and shifting your weight to the ball of the foot. Follow with your opposite foot to match this step. As you finish this step forward, sink into your hips, bend your knees, and bring your arms down to your side. Leading with the arms, spring off the ground straight up.
