harold,
maybe you are trying to get too specific about movements that make no sense to you. whatever the reason, unlike road directions, you're not likely to get lost onstage. in any drama, at certain places in the drama, you have to be somewhere interacting with someone. the movements you make are the travel from place to place. if you understand what is going on and your role in those activities, you will know why you have to be one place or another. if you know the sequence of dramatic events, you'll know which order you have to be in those places. start by getting it generally right and you'll find that such concerns as to which leg to start walking with and what to do with your left pinky, are not all that important.
in regard to quitting the workshop, let them be the ones to get rid of you. they will keep you as long as you are useful to them. it would be far better to have the reputation of a bewildered statue than to be known as an unreliable statue.
