Re:Traditional kung fu in self defence 4 Months, 1 Week ago
For self defence I think you should practice hitting from all angles. However, let's face it in a real fight, you are going to be in a pretty neutral stance to start off with. When it kicks off, it's more important that you are trying to deal with the opponent than worry about your stance.
Just my thoughts

Your stance can either be your root or your vehicle for movement all are paramount in real life scenario's. The transition between the two is what i believe should be drilled into muscle memory. What do you guys think ?

Hi Meditator,
A stance is a static position. When applied, a stance becomes a step; fluid and capable of change.
In application, you don't stay in one position for any length of time, you constantly move. As such, your body should flow from one posture to another.
