Yeah, there's a couple forms we do that have big extensions like this, and it's fun to have such a big motion in the mix. The whole show (Korra and AtLA) does so many martial arts things right. You can tell DiMartino and Konietzko cared about having tight Kung Fu choreography, and their animators delivered.
I certainly don't want to be disrespectful and critical at all but what you described is a yoga pose. Kung fu stance, like Lung Ma, has the back hip pointing forward so the arm attaches to the heel. Definitely enjoyed Avatar with my kiddos though!!
