Karate: Fighting Stance
This one I haven't been able to find equivalant Japanese name. This might be an American Karate stance.
Execution of Fighting Stance:
- From attention stance usually
- Step back with left or right foot turning your body side ways with your feet parallel. You will still be looking towards the front
- Back hand comes up near your face between eye and ear with elbows tight protecting the ribs.
- Lead hand is in a fist down by your side
