Basic Fundamental Positions of Arms and Feet

FEET POSITION

First position. Picture


The heels are kept together, and the toes are apart with an angle of about 45 degrees.

Demonstration

Second position
The feet are separated by a distance of one foot, and they are turned outward in a
straight line.

Third position
The feet are turned outward, and the heels are placed together, one in front of the other.

Fourth position
The feet are separated by a distance of one foot, and they are turned outward with one
foot in front of the other, parallel to each other so that if you drew a line from the heel of
one foot to the toe of the other, they would form the sides of a square.

Fifth position
The feet are turned outward, one foot is placed directly in front of the other, and the first
joint of the big toe extends past each heel.
