19m
In this video, Karen will show you how she improves Solana’s Spanish Walk. Solana already knows this movement, but she can easily fall on the forehand, or does not fully extend her leg. Karen will narrate as she quickly changes the dynamic and helps Solana keep her weight on her hind quarters, get full extension, as well as moving more rhythmically forward. Atomic also makes a cameo appearance! This video is great for anyone who already has started Spanish Walk and wants to improve the quality. If you are just starting this movement, search the video label "Spanish Walk" to find more basic videos.
