Most kids do this already..but often from the wrong position...If you think that is all the hands need to do then fix everything else before that and you are set...

the hands are a slave to the body especially when off balance. When you’re vertical the hands are free.

Hey Yoda, are we agreeing or disagreeing I cannot tell... ;) Fix everything else before you worry about what the hands are doing?

yoda? It all works together.
I was teasing..Ok so it all works together. Telling Marcela to swing down is going to fix her balance issues? Come on..you start saying "intent of the hands.." and I might fall off my chair laughing.. 😛

the lower will dictate the uppers position and force production efficiency.. What did you do to fix the upper? Do the same w the lower. Let the middle do it’s thing. Don’t restrict it! Maintain positioning in stance through the forward move like you said earlier in set up. Make sense?

I will never ever say ‘intent w the hands’ hahaha 😂

down w the hands will cure a lot. Balance isn’t one of them though. Like I said the hands are a slave to the body.. the body needs to be in a good position first for the hands to work right.

Yeah I gotcha but I wasn't asking for a fix only for you to say this:
