The Attitude of the Mantis

Your Spirit

should be like that of an EAGLE

swooping down to catch the rabbit.

Your Posture

should be like that of a CAT

about to pounce on a mouse.

Your Waist

should be like that of a DRAGON

sinuous and flexible.

Your Arm

should be like that of a TIGER

strong and steady.

Your Footwork

should be like that of a MONKEY

quick and efficient.

Your Heart

should be like that of a FOX

cunning.

But your Hands

should be like those of a PRAYING MANTIS.
