I want to use Hall-Witt alliance but I don't know how to choose the elements.



Hall-Witt alliance : $[x,y^-1,z]^y[y,z^-1,x]^z[z,x^-1,y]^x=1$



We have $[x,y,z,y^-1] =1$. So $[x,y,z]=[x,y,z]^y^-1$. I don't know how to continue.

    You need to prove that $[x,y^-1,z] = [x,y,z]^-1$. More generally, in a group of class $3$, triple commutators $[x,y,z]$ are linear in all three variables i.e. $[wx,y,z] = [w,y,z][x,y,z]$, etc.

    There are at least 4 conventions for the commutator ($[a,b]=aba^-1b^-1$, $bab^-1a^-1$, $a^-1b^-1ab$, $b^-1a^-1ba$), and for each of them there are two conventions for the double commutator: $[[a,b],c]$ and $[a,[b,c]]$. So it's always good to recall which definition you choose (even if if probably the given equality hold for each of these 8 conventions).
