The stance is not your typical karate stance but that of a "boxer". I was told by several instructors that this is one of the most deadliest martial arts.
thats my kids style ... not a good tournament style ,, not flashy ,Point fighting is not real .Tournaments won't let you grab and thats the basics of the style, good for fighting larger opponents .. Instead of blocking or trying to stop the force of a larger person you redirect it,, or pull it thru using thier momentum . Advanced ranks can use certain strikes in certain spots to kill or paralize in one punch .. Its for real .. very old ..Like any thing eles a good teacher or sensei is key .. One of the very best ,,8th degree (one of 4 in USA)had a dojo in Falmouth .. He's very tough ,, very old school .. no monkey buisness with him . his students are some of the very best of that style ... will pm name if your interrested .. The grabs on the blocks work very well with the ground fighting ..
