The major information compiled from an analysis of this sequence is:
•Point of Reference (form): 12:00
•Point of Reference (maneuver): 1:30
•it advances
•it demonstrates a shift of attention 45-degrees
•it demonstrates stepping 135-degrees forward (right)
•it demonstrates a 45-degree cover (counter-clockwise)
•the initial foot maneuver demonstrates moving only the right foot forward to conclude facing the original direction
•the ending foot maneuver demonstrates moving only the right foot to return to the opening stance (attention)
•the initial hand maneuvers demonstrate moving both hands 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
