I'd like to hear what people have to say about root,balance,stability however you like to call it. in my school we do 10 mins of horse like stance each lesson while moving our arms back and forth infront of the body, feeling the motion that the body makes to balance itself and we try to rid this motion and keep our bodies straight by 'pusing' into the ground. when the body is relaxed it is much easier to do and you feel your gravitational center is lowered making you much more stable. same process in everything we do, the drill is just gives a maximized effect to feel the root really strong.
