Basic Stances

CHOON BEE JA SEH - Ready Stance

Feet are shoulder width apart with arms in front with fists closed. Feet should be facing forward.

CHUN KUL JA SEH – Front Stance

Shoulders facing straight. Front knee should be bent until toes cannot be seen. Back leg behind should be locked out.  Feet should be facing forward. Torso should be upright, not leaning forward. Body weight should be distributed equally between front and back leg.

HU KUL JA SEH – Fighting Stance

Back leg should be bent, foot pointing to the side. Two-thirds or more of body weight should be on back leg. Front leg should also be bent, foot pointing forward, with the ball of the foot touching the ground. Up to one-third of body weight should be on the front leg. This would enable the ability to kick off the front leg without leaning back too far. Arms should be in front, guarding the upper body.

KEE MA JA SEH – Horse-riding Stance

Legs are approximately twice the shoulder width apart, both bent as if you were riding a horse. This is the stance used for the punching exercise, allowing students to concentrate on using their hips to generate power. Feet should be facing forward.

SA KO RIP JA SEH – Side Stance

Same as the horse-riding stance, but the body is facing to the side. Arms should be in front like Fighting Stance. This stance is used for various side attacks or defenses such as Side Punch or Side Kick.
