So it's a transitional movement. O.K., it makes more sense now. So when using it, do you usually use it to gain a little more distance from your opponent?
i.e. if you're in a front stance, would...
Does anyone on here use the t-stance?
I was reading William Cheung's Advanced Wing Chun book and was curious about how you would use the t-stance. I have tried standing in that stance and I feel...
