English term or phrase: straddle
This is about a Strato seat, a chair that encourages the right sitting position. It slightly leans forward.


The design, based on the concept of ‘straddle’ not ‘saddle’, also aims to enhance function and cognitive development.

Reference information:
Ich kann mir nicht recht vorstellen, was der Unterschied zwischen einem Sattelstuhl und deinem Begriff ist, denn auf einem Sattelstuhl sitzt man ja in "Straddle"-Haltung, also mit gespreizten Beinen sowie auf einem Pferd (to straddle a horse). Hast du denn keine Abbildung?
