While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles with it. 2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction!!! I told you so... And there is nothing you can do about it.

BUT, if I start by drawing the circle part of the 6 first (doing it clockwise), then my foot will still go clockwise!

My sister dances the flamenco, and she told me how difficult it was in the beginning to learn to play the castanets, since each hand is tapping out a different cadence.
