So you are going to put your right hand at the neck, palm facing up, left hand at the nose, palm facing down, you are going to pivot your feet, start at the left first. You are going to push your left hand down at the side, you are going to extend your right hand and bring it so the nose is down and out for 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and you just want to kind of bring it back to where you started. So it is all in the wrist when you do it just keep rotating your wrist you want to stretch it out before you start and just keep your arm as straight as you can and just bring it back to where you started.
