This kata uses a unique stance I will call "twisted foot stance." It is rather like a ballerina stance. The feet are pointed in opposite directions, but with the heel of each foot basically lined up with the toes of the other foot. It requires good flexibility.
Also of note with this kata is the start has a double block instead of a lapel grab, and then a double punch.
Motion, with front of the room being "north":
north, west, east, north, north-east and back, north-west and back. bow.
The twisted foot stance occurs in the "west" and "east." Also, each has a kick under a lower level defense, which is an unusual move.
