In this episode, your podcast hosts, Craig and Dave, dive deep into Bu Fa (bù fǎ in Mandarin Pinyin), which literally means step or stance law, but generally hints at that all-important concept of footwork. And what is footwork made up of? Steps, Stances and Stepping methods!
Welcome to Episode Fifty Four of Hiyaa!! THE Martial Arts Podcast – The "Ride that Horsey!" Show.
In addition to walking through the stances (see what I did there? 🙂 ), we address a few listener’s emails and Dave reports back on a Self Defense seminar.
So join us as we saddle up our Goats (and Tigers and Cranes, oh my) and gallop off toward the horizon, Gangnam style!
