Hip turn, hip action and swaying
I was watching the Ben Doyle 'tire trouble' video and he says 'hip turn drags the wet mop, hip action snaps it out.'

7-14. " Except for its being, in itself, the Weight Shift, the Hip Turn is a motion permitting - rather than causing - the other effects, actions, and motions of the Pivot. Weight Shift is strictly a HIP MOTION; Substituting a Head Motion and/or a Knee Motion will make Swaying inevitable."

Does this beg the question: "Do you keep your body weight centered 'in' your hips throughout the stroke ? "

When training the pivot, are the hips a good place to start, or focus ? Can proper hip turn and hip action help correct a pivot that is only superficially correct and prevent swaying?
