| When in the stance, the feet are perpendicular to each other and
about 3/4 shoulder widths apart. The heel of the forward foot points to either
the heel of the midpoint of the base foot. The forward knee is
bent and in line with the foot. The heel of the forward is just off the floor.
The knee of the base leg is slightly bent. The shoulders are directly over the hips
and square. The trunk faces the same direction as the base foot, but head looks
in the direction of the forward foot. Grip the floor with your toes. Although high, this stance is excellent for kicking, as their is little weight on the forward foot, as most of the bodies weight in on the rear foot. Front |
