Three seconds into the video, the guy's very first words. . . "Charging is an offensive violation." Good grief.

1) Charging can be committed by either the offensive player or the defensive player. We usually see it on player control situations, but a defender illegally pushing through a screen is also considered charging.

2) Charging is never a violation. It's a foul, usually personal.

As to his demonstration of mechanics:

The player control signal is to be performed entirely with one arm. It's done in three steps:

1) Fist to stop the clock;
2) Hand behind head;
3) Open palm, pointing direction (done with the same hand).

These videos are really terrible.
