Low Stance May Equal Low Kicks... of course, can be more, too...


This is one of my favorite moves, and also difficult for me. One of my classmates, practices this cool move that drops into a hurdler's split then pops back up into the next motion. I asked Shifu what was the rationale for the low stance and he proceeded to show me a bunch of different low line kicks and attacks that would impact upon the ankle and support limb of an opponent. I'd never considered or thought of attacking like that in such a manner before. To me, it was very much an eye opener and gives me more ambition to stretch and try to develop the skill to hit that low stance better and maybe even try that hurdler's stretch position one day.
