Program: Nunchaku with applications
Nunchaku (Er jie Gun) is made of 2 short (usually wooden) sticks linked by a piece of rope. It became very popular after Bruce Lee introduced it in his movies. Nunchaku offers a shorter range distance for striking than the long staff but its flexibility (via the rope) makes it a very useful and powerful weapon. Practicing Nunchaku sharpens the skills of Chinese martial arts fighters. It allows working on reflexes, blocks, combat distance, dodging and all the skills necessary for a good fighter. You may see a few examples of Nunchaku techniques at the end of NOFØDRA’s video fra Elvelangs i fakkellys 2016.
During the seminar we will learn or review how to handle a Nunchaku with rotation techniques and a part of a long Taolu (choreography). We will also cover applications with a partner to learn how to hit and to block efficiently with a Nunchaku.
This seminar is accessible to everybody and to all levels.
