Maybe I misunderstood, but I believe he's talking about not switching stances. In all reality, you shouldn't "hop" back....you shouldn't move at all. But if you're trying to "develop" a root, that's what's going to happen. In that case, don't switch stances, just learn to dig in.
If he's talking about not switching stances then that's why he is getting "uprooted". If you get pushed from the front you won't have a choice but to switch from a horse stance. You should switch if you need to. Part of "rooting" is being flexible
