Both the concepts of centre of gravity and hara are essential for the karate-do practitioner to develop koshi, that is “putting in the hip” The ability of the karate-do practitioner to apply distinguishes between a novice and experienced karate-do exponent The development of karate-do stance is interwoven and intimate with the practitioner’s ability to maintain balance. There are fundament requirements of a stance ; (i) they must provide sufficient balance for the application of offensive and defensive technique (ii) they must allow for a smooth rotation of hips in the application of technique (iii) they must allow for they application of either offensive or defensive techniques with the greatest possible speed (iv) they must allow for the muscles involve to switch instantly from defensive to offensive and if necessarily simultaneously support defensive and offensive techniques.
