The major information compiled from an analysis of this sequence is:
•Point of Reference (form): 12:00
•Point of Reference (maneuver): 12:00
•it advances
•it demonstrates no shift of attention
•it demonstrates stepping 90-degrees forward (left)
•the initial foot maneuver demonstrates moving only the left foot forward to conclude facing the original direction
•the ending foot maneuver demonstrates moving only the left foot to return to the opening stance (attention)
•the initial hand maneuver demonstrates moving only the left hand to return to an intermediate position (meditating)
•the final hand maneuvers demonstrate moving both hands to return to the opening position (attention)
•the initial foot maneuver moves in the same direction (forward) as the starting foot maneuver with the opposite foot
