I think that the glossary's definition of Axis Tilt is relevant to HK's description of Hula Hula Flexibility.
Axis Tilt: "To change the plane of the Shoulder Turn without moving the Head, the golfer must tilt the shoulder axis by moving the Hips."
Note the WITHOUT MOVING THE HEAD! This is a straight on view not a birds eye X Factor deal.
An actual Hula dancer can move her hips laterally or rotationally with her head held still. Axis tilt in both directions.
Here are two relevant videos. The first from the original Charlie's Angels TV series. (Thats Burner in the back ground in the white safari suit dancing along.) And the second a belly dancer describing the "horizontal figure eight" albeit with a fare degree of double anchor. The figure eight being axis tilt with the right hip back, backing into transition, the move V.J. described.
Perhaps we have the making of a new "Macdonald" drill here, Lynn? Continuos figure eights with the knees pointing straight ahead , the shoulders square (but tilting) and the head held still?
