Response to Low Stances

 

Ahh, the neutral bow stance. How sharp does that tool have to be at the expense of all the other tools in your Kenpo Tool Box?

Width and depth are more important than height. Height management is dictated by mobility concerns. Go ahead, show that attacker how awesome your NB is and I'll show you three good reasons to work on ALL of your stances.

If you have ever marched wearing a large drum or brass instrument then you know what it is to maintain your head level and smooth through your steps. Heel to Toe forward, Toe to Heel backwards.

Okay, okay, go to the closest clothes line and adjust it so that you are looking directly at it, now drop down to your NB and do your step throughs down the line so that your head does not touch the line. What the hell have you accomplished?

Now do the same thing with kicks, ROUNDHOUSE KICKS. Good freakin' luck!
