The "T" Horse:     is used in  conjunction with many of the CLF techniques.  It it also great to resist someone charging in on you.  The key to make this horse work is when looking down on the front leg you shouldn't be able to see your toes.  At the same time,  make sure the back heel is pressed into the ground and keep your knee locked.  Back straight.

The Tip Toe Horse:  is good as a transitional move, but is even better when avoiding being sweeped.  During Jot Ma, a student will draw a circle clock-wise and counter-clock wise then step out into Say Ping Ma then do other side.In this horse your weight is ninety-nine percent on the back leg, while only the tip of your toe touches the floor with the one percent. 

Kneel Horse:   Similar to a three point football stance, the weight distribution is seventy-thirty.  Seventy percent on the left leg as in the photo.

Twist Horse: Beginning in the Say Ping Ma, twist your horse until you look as in the picture.  Weight is on the front leg.  In the picture, he is is a left twist horse.  his right knee rests behind his left knee, basically supporting it.

Retreat Horse:  Start out in "General Horse."  Start with the left foot.  Step back behind your right leg as in the picture.  This horse is meant to retreat when someone either kicks to your legs, rushes in on you and so on.  it's meant in one way as an evasion move.

Advance Horse:  In this picture the student executes an andvance horse by starting in the "General Horse" and by taking the right leg and stepping forward, placing your  rightfoot as in the picture.  Although this horse is used in a trasnsitional situation normally.  Following would be either a step to the side or to the front, or even back to its original position.

One Leg Crane Stance:   In practice this horse is taught to better a students balance, but has many defensive and offensive technqiues hidden within it.
