ABSTRACT

GENERAL INDICATION OF TURNING (ROTATION) Before embarking on the subject of turning (rotating) different parts of the body, it is important to be clear on the following established terminology: 'Turning' is the general term for rotary actions, covering both rotating in one piece and twisting. 'Rotating' refers to turning a part of the body as a unit, i.e. each part turns the same amount. 'Twisting' refers to a turning action in which a greater degree occurs at the extremity with little or none at the base.
