    Use decreasing pressure on the side where the middle does not touch the hone while continuing with low pressure rolling strokes on the other side.
    I'm explaining better:
    Start with enough pressure until the edge in the middle is formed. Gradually lower the pressure and continue. That will progressively form the edge starting from the middle towards the sides. At the end, with low pressure you will form the edge at tip and toe. If the edge shaping is not simply an arc the same principle applies, but you must be more careful to different blade areas.
    Help the whole procedure with the method suggested by onimaru, in order to avoid excessive pressure and form the edge in the middle.
    Stay very light with the rolling strokes on the other side, otherwise you risk to grab in the stone and damage the edge in the middle.
    Good luck.
