In pirouette my leg also hangs quietly; no desperate nagging or clutching or grinding with a clinging leg aid. If I have to I can give him one single kick at a time (or tap of the whip), but then back to zero leg. This is so that the power or "giddyup-ness" or energy is generated by the beastie himself, NOT from desperate maintenance clutching from my leg or seat aids.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14352628028003121973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265634031056543464.post-56756304666391168172013-02-14T15:09:36.202-06:002013-02-14T15:09:36.202-06:00Marlene Caldwell: Carrie can you elaborate a bit m...Marlene Caldwell: Carrie can you elaborate a bit more on the zero maintenance leg?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
