The square cut learned in three steps, over a few meters and without a ball. Each step is done three times on each side before moving on to the next. Step 1: you lean forward onto your toes, catch your weight all at once and hold a pause, three times with each leg. Step 2: you rotate the hips and sink your weight over three counted steps (left, right, left or right, left, right), then hold a pause at the end, three times on each side. Step 3: you put it all together in one continuous movement and come out on the diagonal at the end. Count the steps out loud at first.
