Leaders should have a forward poise with their blocks of weight aligned. Followers should have a fully stretched spine, angled slightly leftwards, without tipping the shoulders.
Leaders frame should be wide from elbow to elbow, maintaining with across both the back and the chest. Follower's arms should be light and responsive in the Leader's frame.
