Front Facing Cat Leg Stance

There is 1 foots’ distance between your heels, lengthwise, and no width between the inside of your heels. The back foot is turned 22.5 degrees and flat, while the front foot is straight with the heel raised slightly. Both knees are pressing outward, and the body is straight forward. Your hips are shifted back over your back foot with the back foot carrying all of your weight. The back knee is bent so the knee is over the toes and the front leg is relaxed straight.
