Commented I'm rather impressed by the of the word 'churn'. Most people mistakenly say 'turn' but the saying is making a reference to butter churns. It's a much more descriptive picture to paint.

"My lady, I cannot stress enough, do not close your eyes when charging! You must observe your opponent's movements at all times! And maintaining your balance is vital. It is the lack of attention to your stance that makes you stumble whenever you're required to move with any haste. No, no! You must coordinate your arms and legs when you run.
