Too much...
In my school there are 2 forms per level until you reach green...
Then it goes 3 forms at a time...
And finally at black you need to know 20 or so forms total!

Normally from Upright stance, basically feet close together with back foot turned slightly outwards. However we often do kicks from Front and Back stance, more often in patterns than Sparring however  |

The basics are front and back stance... then they get more complex as you progress. Your footing changes, your approach, amount of time it takes to do the form... It really gets interesting.
