1.  Start with the legs straight, feet close together, arms at the sides, elbows slightly bent. 

             2.  Relax arms, shake out hands as if ruffling feathers, then flex hands tightly into the shape of
             talons -- fingers bent at the first and second joints, thumb bent and tucked in, palm flat. (Talons
             are maintained till the end of the pass.) 

             3.  Simultaneously swing arms out horizontally at shoulder level to a position where the right
             arm is 45 degrees from center to the left front side of the body and the left arm is in line with it
             to the right back side of the body, twisting the torso as needed. 

             During this movement rise up slightly with the feet, then dip down till the knees are bent into a
             standard Tensegrity posture (this stance is maintained till the last part of the pass). The face
             and knees remain pointing forward throughout. 

             4.  Swing the arms around clockwise (horizontally) till the left arm is 45 degrees from center to
             the right front side of the body and the right arm is in line with it to the left back side of the
             body. 

             5.  In one smooth motion, swivel the arms back around horizontally and let first the right arm
             and then, reversing direction, the left arm dip gracefully down and around describing a broad
             open-ended infinity symbol (sideways figure 8) in front of the body, the open end being on the
             side whose arm is describing the movement. 

             This alternating sequence of movements should be very flowing. At the end of the left arm's
             infinity symbol, return to the position of step number 3, following through with the natural
             momentum of the movement in a counter-clockwise direction. 

             6.  Swivel the arms clockwise till they are straight out to the sides (body facing forward). 

             7.  Move the arms in 3 small forward circles, then 3 larger forward circles, using more of the
             shoulders in the movement (winging forward). 

             8.  Bring arms back out to the sides and do 9 small forward circles. 

             9.  On the ninth circle, gracefully swing the hands up, shoulder-width apart away from the
             body to the front, and claw down, talons/palms facing forward, till the arms swing down and
             back a few inches behind the body at butt level, talons facing back. 

             10.  Straighten up the torso AND LEGS while pushing out the chest, raising up the chin, and
             pulling back the shoulders. Hold for a moment, keeping arms and talons tense. 

             (This strengthens the 'cloak of confidence', the bar across the chest which is used as a shield.) 

             11.  Relax talons, opening the hands, and let arms slowly move back to the sides as the rest of
             the body also relaxes.
