This is a strong position, both front and rear feet are offensive and defensive.

Move one of feet forward or rear. The length between both feet should be shoulder and half width , while the width between both feet is one shoulder width.
A stand with a length longer than a one and a half shoulder width makes the movement slow and one is vulnerable to attack from the side, front or back.
Bend the front leg so that the heel in a straight aligns with the knee. The rear leg has to be completely stretched.
Distribute your body weight equally on both feet. Make sure the toes of the front foot pointing forward.
The toes of the back leg foot must be pointed 25 degrees outwards When this is greater than 25 degrees then is more vulnerable to the rear leg an attack from behind. Tighten the muscles of both feet with the sense to bring them together.
