hip, shoulder, sword

More stating of the obvious: don't swing the sword with the muscles of the arms and shoulders. Let the natural movement of the body going forward, starting with the hips, carry the sword. Placement of the foot should be secondary to the hips moving forward.
Things I need to fix:
* Too much arm strength
* Too much weight on the front foot
* Too much adjusting the back foot to compensate for bad form
* Too tight a grip
* Too much shoulder tension
