MONKEY STANCE

The Monkey’s hands are the extensions of her cunning and flexibility and the weapons of her darting attacks. her skilful and rapid hand movements distract and confuse her opponents, trapping and parrying with perfect co-ordination. The Monkey is an actress and an infighter who cannot be dislodged.

The Monkey is a curious and irreverent mirror of mankind, and her ludicrous antics often seem to parody our own attempts at nobility. She is neither the largest, nor the swiftest, and certainly not the strongest of the animals, but her wit and willingness to adapt maker her a formidable opponent.
