As we were practicing in class yesterday, Shifu suggested the following: As you get tired, it is ok for your stance to go a little higher; however, your arms and body shoule not get tired so, try to make sure that your upper body and hands are in the correct position. Shifu strongly recommends that in class, when the mirrors are available to be sure to check one's positioning during the forms.
Shifu made a point of going over the correct foot positioning and explained that: "imagine your feet as grabbing or gripping the floor. This way you will have a firm foundation with your legs/knees/ ankles correctly positioned so you are strong and not likely to injure yourself while training."
As always, Shifu was full of useful advice for us trying to improve.
