Bend at the knees and extend your arms behind. Using your arms for momentum, jump up high. Once in the air pull and tuck both knees to the chest holding very briefly with your arms. When you land cushion the knees to absorb high impact. Re-set body position and repeat. If you find this move to difficult to begin with try jumps with knee taps until you are able for a tuck jump.
