	Bring your Left hand up to your Right shoulder and stretch your Right hand forward towards 9 o'clock - low and to your left
	As you begin to step with your Left foot, push your Right arm and hip forward, keeping your Left arm at your shoulder until just before your reach the completed stance position
	Do not step in a straight line towards 9 o'clock as this will make your stance very narrow - step out to the 7.30 clock position.  This will give you a wide front stance facing 9 o'clock
	As your Left foot reaches its stance position, bring your Left hand quickly from your shoulder to finish about 6 inches above your Left knee.  At the same time pull your Right fist quickly back to your Right hip - palm facing upward
	Make sure your front leg is bent with your knee over your toes, and your back leg is straight and locked
	Breathe out completely and tense all your body muscles for a brief moment on the completion of the move
