CHAPTER7 Basics of Kumite Posture　‐ Faster,　Stronger, and Further –

In this video, Tsukii-sensei explains how to stand in Kumite.
The power of your Kisami-tsuki can be doubled by opening the angle between your feet.The traditional way of standing in Japanese martial arts is to open the toes 90 degrees.This is called "Shumoku-dachi" or Hammer stance.In this way, you can maintain your mechanical advantage, and keep your balance even if your opponent pushes you hard.
Once you have mastered this stance you can even take your partner's balance using nothing more than a single finger. 

The videos are updated every week on Wednesday
