Tiny Tips: strong passé technique

Want a nicer-looking passé? Make sure your hips are aligned, then bring your working leg up.  Focus on dragging your toes, not heaving your quad.  When your working leg gets above the knee on your supporting leg, keep lifting it using the "turnout" muscles and inner thigh muscles of your working leg.  This will ensure that your hips stay aligned as your working leg moves higher.
