Not always... the technique is sutile and differs from pilot to pilot. Neve
been able to summarize it and in the end always ends the same way, if you
want to learn how to thermal... fly a lot of thermals and try a lot of
approaches to it.
One thing for sure. Turning away from the lift won't make it.

Are you sure you center more quickly if you turn toward the rising wing?

If you're fliying into a thermal, a wing rises, the IAS increases,

etc...
just pull back to the original speed, turn into the rising wing, an FLY.
Complex aerodinamic explanations are good for winter, but look out of

the
window... and go flying.
