Question How to pick up the hoof?

I've only had my horse for 2 weeks she is 3 and not broke the previous owner said they were able to pick up her feet I don't know about being able to clean them but anyways. when i try to pick them up she tries to bite my butt. I have succeded 3 out of 10 times. Is there a certain way or position to be in when doing this? I stand even with her shoulder and out of the way of her feet so I don't get stepped on I run my hand down the back of her arm to her ankle or whatever it is called bend it towards her head then she moves or tries to bite my butt.. I've always loved horses but as soon as I got my own i feel like I don't know anything about them. I need help....
