i have a teacher who teaches children and the cat stance is where you put your front leg in front of the other and pull your front leg back a little and bend your knee then you are doing the cat stance

I was taught a different form of horse stance where the feet are only shoulder length apart, was I told wrong, is this form Shoulin Long Fist? I am not sure.

the Chinese martial arts center doesn't happen to have a location near me, in Anaheim California, now would it?

He is a good teacher. He is telling you why you are doing the movement. You are not just doing something with no reasoning behind it.

Hey, please reply on this to make it clear for me. When i was taught it was pretty different from you. Our horse stance required both legs pointing from similar to yours. Cat stance required the whole entire back foot down having about 90% weight back and 10 front. And we called the bow stance the foward stance. And the cat stance was our fighting stance with our hands in a specific position toward the front. Thats it or maybey im missing something. please reply

Hi. Horse stance, as a bench mark, must be low. In practices & demonstrations the quads would be flat but during pratical app it would be relatively higher. Cat stance is also called empty step and bow stance can also be refered to as forward stance. There's a common saying : different master, different style.
