Abstract

The most fundamental postures in karate are (Zenkutsu  Dachi and Kokutsu Dachi and Kiba Dachi) but karate references  are almost devoid of the basis of a clear and unified model for these postures in line with all the players with their various physical variables, and all the trainers during their teaching these postures to novices they teach it depending on their background and the general specifications of the posture and that may take long time in teaching as well as player errors and the time spent in correction.
researcher found that these three postures involved in having a horizontal and vertical specific distance varies according to each postures and that determines its features and specifications, hence, appeared the idea of determining the vertical and horizontal distance for a specific posture of world champion and with knowledge of player height  we can divide the player height on both vertical and horizontal distance which gives us two ratios that being considered as a sincere standard for a posture.
