front foot to the back heel of the rear foot. It is one-and-a-half (1.5)
shoulder widths long, measured from the big toe of the rear foot to the big toe
of the front foot. The weight is distributed 50% on the rear foot and 50%
on the front foot. The rear leg is bent with the rear foot pointed in 15
degrees. The front leg is bent with the front foot pointing 15
degrees. This stance is named for the front foot, and is always performed
half facing.

This

with the sole of the non-supporting foot placed on the knee joint of the
supporting leg and the footsword of the non-supporting foot parallel to the
floor. The knee of the non-supporting leg faces in about 25-30
