  2. Look at the base hand, around the first knuckle of the thumb or index finger.
  3. Shift the tucked hips slightly diagonally over the base hand, matching the diagonal of the shoulders, with the opposite hip above the base hand.
  4. Push the base hand hard into the floor for more Shoulder flexion backward and Shoulder elevation , as if pushing the shoulder up to the ear.
  5. Let the other hand tent up until only 2 fingertips touch the ground, and hold.

  1. Don't lift the fingers of the base hand on purpose: they should tent up as a reaction to the shoulder push.
