Hi Paulina
Hanmi offers most the opportunity to bleed energy-usually at a about a 30 to 45 deg angle in the direction of whichever hip is the rear hip. Left leg back bleed left, right-bleed right. Push on them and they you feel it almost immediately. If you let go suddenly, they spring-up in whatever direction they are commpensating for.
....snip....
It's hard to describe movement. ..
Thanks for trying.

Hey, I can say "I do that , too" about the above! I just asked my husband (weighs less than me, no martial arts experience or interest for that matter) to push me in hamni, and then stop pushing. Ummm...

Back to work...
