  • Dude, like man dude. Fight dude man wow

  • Turn your hips more.

  • if you're doing the stance properly, your foot cant be facing directly forwards, unless your back foot isnt completely flat, or your stance is too short. and yes hi gi is quite repulsive.

  • What are you talking about boxing has proven itself to be one of the ultimate self defense styles. I think anyone with brains wouldnt throw a punch with their thumb in, thats stupid, you'll break your thumb. I've done shorin ryu karate and boxing. A boxing stance is more protective, more mobility, more power, but slightly less balance. I would use some karate in a fight, some wrestling, but mainly boxing because boxing has the strongest punches from any style.

  • BOXING? XD that's like saying study football for self-defense reasons.

    Oh, and in a real fight are you going to check to make sure your thumb isn't inside your fist?

    ...although i agree with others that the uniform is kind of... uh...

  • This guy breaks my heart calling himself Shorin Ryu and wearing that track suite for a gi.

  • whoever taught you that forward stance should learn it themselves. Your back foot should not be on an angle but facing straight. Nice attempt though.

  • what about when it comes down to the real thing when you have to defend your self, are you going to make sure that your properly standing? lol... learn to box stop wasting your time on much more complicated things...

  • Please check out my video, it discusses the HorseStance, Front and Back stance better, with their strengths and weaknesses of each stance. Peace be with you.

  • Great instruction! Thanks for posting it! For u other guys, he isnt saying stop during a fight and start measuring crap! Hes telling u how to learn to do it right before u have to use it!
