What is ON GUARD STANCES?

 What is ON GUARD STANCES?

Preparation to defend requires that you be in good balance and 

that your hands and feet are in position to deliver blows 

quickly and easily. The on-guard stances shown here give you 

all the necessary values of fighting stances without showing 

belligerence. Needless to say, if your adversary has already 

started an attack or you judge that it is impossible to avoid a 

fight, you do not have to delay your defense by going into any 

kind of a stance.


Feet are in semi T-position, weight is on the rear foot to allow 

lead foot to kick, if necessary; hands are held clasped at about 

waist height with the fingers of the right hand pulling back 

against the left hand, creating a spring tension.
