The Ma Bu , also Mabu ( Chinese  馬步  /  马步 , English Horse stance  - "equestrian stand "), in Japanese also Kiba Dachi ( 騎馬 立 ち ), in Korean known as Juchum seogi ( 주춤 서기 ) or Kuda Kuda in India , is a frequently used stand - also called the basic position or main position - in the martial arts . Contrary to popular belief, the purpose of the Ma Bu was not originally to strengthen the leg muscles. The real idea with the stand was to position yourself behind your opponent and then push him to the ground using your own legs.

position

The general Ma Bu position in Chinese martial arts ( Wushu , Kung Fu ) is also technically called Sipengma - 四平 馬  /  四平 马 . To stand in the Ma Bu stand, you first stand up straight with your feet next to each other. Then you put your weight on your heels and your toes are rotated outwards at a 45 ° angle. You now shift your weight onto the balls of your feet and turn your heels 45 ° outwards. Repeat the first step and turn the balls of the feet outwards by another 45 °. In the last step, turn your heels so that your feet are again parallel to each other. It is important to ensure that the knee joints are angled as precisely as possible 90 °, the tips of the feet point forward and the back is straight.
