"What.. the hell."

Thistlestep didn't understand why his first .. step, if he could even call it that, was to get on the ground like a rug.

That wasn't even touching the.. whatever this crouch was. "Okay, get up." Thistlestep jabbed at his side sharply. "Lower yourself to the crouch, don't start from the bottom and work your way up. Keep your belly and tail away from the ground - you don't want it to brush against it, and level your head with your shoulders. You're looking ahead and around you, not at the ground."

Once he made those adjustments, they could work with the remainder of the corrections from there.
