WHAT
IS FIGHTING STANCES?
The
classic fighting stance of karate is primarily useful for contest
and for free-style
practice; as self-defense tactics they are often
neither practical nor
possible. When you assume a karate fighting
stance, you announce your intention
of fighting you less the
chance of trying to avoid a street fight. The fighting
stance imply
belligerence and make you seem the aggressor even when you are
in
a situation which you have not created and even though you
may prefer not to
fight. It is psychological disadvantage to take on
the role of the aggressor.
Because you may not always have the
time or opportunity to assume a fighting
stance, practical and
useful self-defense training must be based on the
assumption that
you can effectively defend from a natural stance from a seated
position, or even from the ground.
