There are 2 types of stances which depend on your dominant hand , if your right hand is the dominant one you should assume the ORTHODOX stance but if your left hand is the dominant one you choose the SOUTHPAW stance
The Basics of footwork are very simple ; maintaining a balanced stance, moving the foot closest to your direction first (lead foot forward, rear foot back), taking small, controlled steps (about 3 inches), and never crossing your feet or squaring up, allowing for quick shifts in angle and distance, and syncing movement with punches for offense and defense
