The rotation is as simple as It sounds: a turning movement. Shake your head "no" and you  are an expert at rotations.

Start by rotating just the head. Hold on to both sides of your neck with your hands. (Your hands are there to tell you when your head has finished its rotation and your neck has begun.) Turn your head as if looking to your right. As soon as you feel your neck begin to move, stop rotating. That's as far as you can rotate the head.

lower your hands to the base of the neck. When you add the neck to your rotation, your chin should be directly over your shoulder.

When I practice rotating my shoulders and chest, I put my hands vertically along my hip bones, I put my right hand in front of my right hip and left hand behind my left hip if I'm turning left; use opposite hand positions for rotations to the right. Remember, the reason for the hand placement is to feel when you are over-rotating. Rotate your chest until you feel your waist move.

Next, add your waist. After you add the rotation in your waist you should feel fully extended, except that your legs are straight. To throw your hips into the rotation, let the leg you're moving away from collapse. Your bottom should swing around. This is the full set of rotations in one direction. Make sure you are fully extended. all the way around. Set yourself to the neutral position by pulling back to the center one section at a time. Then, try the other direction.
