Lying on your side resting on your elbow, bring your free arm behind your head. Now, bring your hip forward and back, allowing the leg and foot to follow, but do not lead with them. You sould get a snakey movement which is reminicant of old Hollywood Cleopatra's that audiences still love today. Remember to keep the space between your arms and your chest open and the ribcage lifted.Lying on your side resting on your hand (your hand will have to be directly under your soulder or you will slide down away from your hand making it nearly impossible to do this move), bring your free arm behind your head. Now, bring your hip forward causing the hip on the other side to be pushed back. Essentially you will be doing a figure eight here, however you will dip a little when your hip goes down and pull back up when your hip goes up. Allow the leg and foot to follow, but do not lead with them. You sould get a snakey movement which is reminicant of old Hollywood Cleopatra's that audiences still love today. Be carefull though this move does reqiere a lot of muscle strenth and control. If you have any problems with your wrists knees or shoulders I urge you to be extra careful as that is where a large portion of the weight is distributed. Remember to keep the space between your arms and your chest open and the ribcage lifted. Oh, and your hips will need to be lifted of the floor for this. In fact, your whole body is lifted off the floor in this one.This is very much the same as the Cleopatra 1, but in this one your going to roll down the body with an udulation and when you get down to the hip you follow the same instructions as Cleopatra 1.Lying on your side resting on your hand, bring your free arm beind your head. Remember to keep the space between your arms and your chest open and the ribcage lifted. Your whole body will be raised off the floor. Now, roll down your body in an undulation. The same cautions apply here as are stated in the Cleopatra 2 Move.
