Stance
The standing posture of the feet when throwing darts is called "Stance". A stable stance can elevate the stability of the throw.
Basic stance
Unlike baseball and bowling, the dart-throwing stance requires the foot on the same side of the handedness to be in the front. Right-handed players must position their right foot forwards, while left-handed players do the other way around.
Do not step over the throw line
Players must stand behind the throw line when throwing darts; stepping over the line is considered a foul. Players must be aware of the rule.
Middle stance
This stance makes it easy to aim and throw and is the recommended stance for beginners. Face directly toward the dartboard with the front leg turning around 45 degrees. The front leg should carry most of the body weight, while your leg should move slightly on tiptoes. The weight distribution ratio between the front and back legs is about 9:1.
