For me, flying begins with high jumping while controlling my movement in air. I start by jumping 6 feet, then again and achieving 15-20 feet, then eventually over a house. After jumping over the house is when I start to change my lateral velocity while in air, and begin to control my speed of descent as well. Eventually, I jump about 100 feet in the air, start moving sideways at the peak of my jump, and slow down my descent as I get close to the ground, the point where I'm flying directly over the ground at a decent speed.

Once I get there, I have complete control and can fly however I want as fast as I want. I've never been able to hold on for more than a minute or so though before I wake up.
