Note: At the same time that the body changes from turning left to turning right, the hands change from nì reeling to shùn reeling, and from open to closed. When practicing, pay attention to the waist dropping and the qi sinking to dan tian. Not only are the elbow and fist coordinated, but the whole body rising and falling is all coordinated.
