This is harder than it sounds. Having all your muscles tensed at the same time while executing technique, and simultaneously coordinating forced breathing with the movements takes much mental and physical control. Like juggling multiple balls at the same time. It really is a battle to maintain all this throughout the kata. Simple to learn, difficult to properly do it.most frequent explanation being: Body, mind, breath/spirit. That we struggle to align those three so they can work in harmony
This is more likely seisan stance.The Kote-kitae and Kakie practice was done in a sanchin like leg stance but with a quite natural feel to it, quite upright, just a slight bend of the knees, feet pointing more forward than inward.
