Crouching, or sneaking, in Minecraft allows you to sneak up on enemies and move slowly through the world. It is very useful for building overhanging structures, as you won't walk over the edge. Sneaking can hide your player name from other players when you're playing online, and prevents you from making footstep sounds.
