BEGINNING

Stand in the INFINITY POSTURE and raise both arms out to the sides, palms down, twisting your torso slightly rightward (Fig. 9). Take your hands past your shoulders overhead, shoulder width apart, palms still down (Fig. 10). Continuing with your torso turned to the right, keep your knees together and sink your body as you lower your palms down the front of your body and close them into fists, while shifting most of your weight onto your right foot (Fig. 11).

Turn your waist leftward, DRILLING your right fist upward and forward (Fig. 12), palm up, to eyebrow level. Simultaneously, withdraw your left fist, palm down, to your left hip (Fig. 13). As you step forward with your left foot, DRILL your left fist upward (Fig. 14), open it, and strike with it over your retreating right fist, which open palm down near your groin. Your left foot is now on a line slightly to the left (about a fist's width) of your right heel (Fig. 15). The length of your advancing step should accord with your height.
