Which way does the waist turn when the arms do their movement?
What about the the left leg, does the kua open or close (kua here refers to the hip joint), which way does the femur spiral?
what about the right leg kua, whats it doing and which way does the leg spiral?
What's the left and right shoulder doing, (left feels like it close, right opens imo) is this what you can tell ?
I am not sure this will work for you, but many of your questions might be answered if you grabbed a staff.
Point the tip of the staff to the front.
Sit in a bow stance, Right-foot forward. Then transfer weight more to the rear left foot.
At the very same time of the weight shift, turn the whole torso about 45° degrees-ish to the left.
Also At the very same time, use the hand method suggested
(from my 1st post), to move the tip of the staff
from the front to the left front corner.
In all movements, make sure your knees stay in line with your toes direction
& at the end of the movement, make sure your right elbow is over your right knee.
After getting really familiar with it snap the tip to the corner.
Then, when it becomes a simple movement for you, carefully do the same thing with someone’s wrist & upper arm.
But don't snap their arm.
Just practice.
