Anji woke up feeling sore from yesterday's training. She spent the whole afternoon in bed, only getting up to eat dinner. After her second bath and Lizi's expert massage, she fell asleep again. The morning brought some relief, her muscles aching less than before. However, Zhao Wanting was adamant that Anji should not engage in any physical activities without Doctor He's approval. Anji could only watch as her mother demonstrated the most basic martial art forms.
"Let's review the horse stance from yesterday," Zhao Wanting smiled. "The key to a stable footwork is controlling your centre of gravity."
According to her mother, there were six different basic stances that applied to every martial arts routine. They were — horse, bow, cat, empty, cross and single-leg stances.
