Hold the ball

Let the weight shift completely to the right foot.  Rotate the hips to face them left as the left foot rotates on its heel so the toes point left as well.  While rotating the waist bring the left hand up with the palm facing down and the right hand below it with the palm facing up.  The hands and arms should be positioned as if you were holding a ball between the two hands.

Ward off

Let the weight shift completely to the left foot and then lift the right foot up and move it in front of you slightly to the right. When setting the foot down do it slowly as if testing your footing on a unsure surface.  Now turn the waist and shift 70% of your weight to the right foot as the right arm lifts up and the left arm moves down. At the end of the movement the right hand should be positioned as if the same ball is being held between the hand and the chest
