Reverse Neutral Bow (Stance)

 

A specific type of Bow and Arrow stance which is physically distinguishable from the standard neutral bow stance by the reversing of the width to Heel-Toe Alignment and a variation of the foot and body rotation as needed.

 

Comments:

 

This stance is considered transitory in nature and primarily used in conjunction with slipping and other evasive body and foot maneuvers.

 

This stance is not part of original written curriculum - but is used primarily in specific combat and sparring situations.

 

Derivation:

 

This stance derives its name from the fact that it has the reverse foot alignment to the standard neutral bow stance.
