Say What You Are About To Do
When learning you may find it easier to say just the movement you are doing before you do it. i.e. “forward forward.” As you get more comfortable you can say that position you are moving to before you do the move. If you are at 1-1 and are moving to 2-2 say “two two” then do the move. Note that you may find it helpful to practice saying the positions in isolation, without actually doing the moves. Once you can say the positions smoothly, then add the actual movements.
