Standing in the Big Apple
My standing friend, this is more than an attempt. You definitely appear to be relaxed in stance while the simple young man behind you appears to be fumbling his way through a date. I feel bad for those who are ignorant to the magic of stance. I trust you were well refreshed to continue your journey through the Big Apple.

Poetic Stance
I’ve been admiring your stances and plan on purchasing your Book of Stances as soon as I sell my aluminum can collection. Years ago when I was taking an Inspirational Poetry class at an undisclosed community college, I thought my professor was odd for doing this. I didn’t realize this was actually a perfect execution of one of your “Lou” stances. Bravo to my teacher for helping to blaze the trail with a stance worthy of your high standards!

Thank you Adam for this submission. It is truly encouraging to know that someone in the education system is influencing and inspiring young minds. Kudos to your professor.

Stance Enhanced Taser Training
Wow! I’m thrilled to see one of my custom stances being put into practice. This stance was specifically designed for tactical taser recipient catching. I like to call this one the “Taser Brace”. I must compliment these protectors of liberty and justice on their flawless execution of this stance. Stand on Brothers!!

Featured Stander: Lani
Mrs. Master of Stance decided to bust out in stance in the middle of the day for no apparent reason other than to make the day better. She sure does know her stances!

Youngest student of stance
At less than 7 months old, little Lucy crawled across the Book of Stances that was left lying on the living room floor. 6 1/2 minutes later, she deployed her first stance. Look at her form. Excellent foot placement and detail in finger extension. Amazing! This junior stander begins her standing career as the youngest stander of our time. Congratulations little Lucy.

Student of stance seeks advice
From Buddy:
PS- Please don’t judge me by this picture. It was taken before I knew anything about the art of stance… what an embarrassment… I look like a stupid idiot jackass!
Buddy, I’m glad that you are seeking your inner stander. I reviewed the photo of you in mid-stance back before you were aware of the stance scene. You shouldn’t be so hard on yourself. You do not look like a “Jackass”. What you are attempting is a very rudimentary version of one of my casual stances. It’s an branch of the “No Big Deal” stance. The problem is obvious by the lack of attention to detail in your foot placement that you were simply unaware of stand etiquette. While deploying any stance while barefooted, the toes of your back foot should never be hidden by the front foot. This is nothing more that a lack of proper training. I must tell you though; there is definitely a unique quality that seems inherent in you. I think that you are ready to move forward. It pleases me that you have the discovered that you do have “The Stance” in you. I’m sure with a little practice, in no time at all you’ll be able to earn a spot as a Featured Stander. Stay cool my standing brother and …
