Cat foot stance is one of the prettiest stances in my opinion if you get it right.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
TECHNIQUE TIPS AND TRICKS:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sink LOW bend your knees, and then bend them more 🦵🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
90% of the weight should be on the back foot, with 10% of the weight on the ball of your front foot. Your front foot heel should be up nice and high. For those who wear high heels imagine you’re showcasing some serious stilettos 👠 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your back foot should be at a 45 degree angle so your knee can bend naturally 📐 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Want to feel more in tune with your inner power?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stand on one leg. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s about tightening all of your muscles and holding this position. It’s about trusting your body. It’s about knowing and feeling that you can hold it for as long as you want to. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You’re going to fall over (A LOT), but how you choose to stand up when you fall, and how you decide to approach your balance and inner strength is all that matters. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Ren-Zukis are the best to train:

🥋 breathing
🥋 hip rotation
🥋 timing + rhythm

I am doing a slow, fast rhythm here, but you can get creative in how you want to approach these.

Add 10 for 3 sets to warm up or to the end of your workout!!
