Introduction to Water Boxing, Part 3

Water boxing generally uses three primary stances.

In part 3 of my series of videos introducing water boxing, we look at the three primary stances: the 60/40 stance, the 70/30 stance, and the 90/10 stance. The reason why I use this terminology for the stances is because probably the most important thing to practice in the beginning is the weight distribution. From there, you can better adjust for the proper length, height, and width, as well as engage the use of the kwa (hips), all of which will enable you to use the stances in a dynamic and more combat-oriented way.
