Instructor's Notes (Not Spoken)

After the command script, place one page of notes:

• All commands are verbs (口令皆為動詞).
• Hook Foot (扣腳) and Toe-Out Pivot (撇腳) refer to the front foot unless otherwise specified.
• Turn Left (左轉) and Turn Right (右轉) indicate a 90° turn while maintaining Yin–Yang Hands (陰陽手).
• The Sit Back (後座) before Raise Peng (上掤) is a transitional movement rather than a full sitting-back action.
• This routine uses a T-Stance (丁字步) of approximately 22.5°.
• Hands and feet should move synchronously (手腳同步).

---

This format is much closer to the way experienced instructors actually teach. During class, they can glance at a single line and call the next movement without reading long descriptions. All technical explanations remain in the corresponding teaching chapters of the manual. I would also put the spoken commands in bold, large font, while keeping transitions and instructor notes in a smaller font to distinguish them visually.

  Instructor's Voice Commands (口令)

Remember, this section is not a teaching chapter—it is an Instructor's Command Script (教練口令本). During practice, the instructor should only call short, clear commands, just like a conductor. Explanations belong elsewhere in the manual.
