Cat Stance (Neko-Ashi Dachi) breakdown for Karate practitioners.

The “Cat Stance” (Neko-Ashi Dachi, instruction at 0:40) is a stance that keeps you light on your feet. It has linear movement applications but more importantly a strict emphasis on 45° movements… Which are very important to Karate practitioners because we are known for our unique use of angles during fighting/sparring. Enjoy!

    There is always a difference of opinion when it comes to different techniques but the body mechanics of tilting your pelvis forward all allows you to move quicker forward and back.
