I keep my hips square/perpendicular to the bike and my spine parallel with the bike.

Hanging off with your hips at an angle promotes a crossed-up body position and encourages bar pressure.
You rotate around the tank and square your shoulders, not your hips. Apply pressure with your outside foot to the rearset and grip the tank with the inside of your outside leg to support your body. Minimal pressure is put on your arms at all. If you are in a left turn you should be able to remove your left hand all together and touch the ground if you so choose.
