  Form  4.   Waving Hands in the Cloud 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Begin with the right hand in front of your face and the left hand in front of your navel.  Knees are bent and feet shoulder width apart.  Both hands are drawing vertical circles in opposite directions.  The upper hand faces your body, like holding a balloon with your arm, and the lower hand faces the ground as if it were resting on a floating balloon.  When the upper hand and lower hand are switching positions,  the descending hand faces outward and the rising hand faces inward as if they were taking the balloons from the other hand.  The waist turns with the upper hand.
 
Breathe in while switching upper and lower hands, breathe out while waving hands from one side to the other.  Do not lift the shoulder when you lift the hand.  Palms should move in circular paths.  Fingers should always be bent a little, with the center of the palms curved slightly inward.  Sight should lead the upper hand while you are waving it in front of your face.
