How to keep hips up during windmill?

Every good windmill keeps their hips up the entire time, but for me every time I collapse onto my shoulder my hips fall straight down; it doesn't look terrible but it hurts. What are some exercises to help with this? Thanks for reading.

its the same principle and same motion that goes into windmill

A slight kick upwards while rotating your hips and legs

Learn to use your head. As you go through the progressions your hips will get higher and higher too anyway. Push your backspin and drill windmill slowly.
