Shaolin Staff Course
Shaolin Staff
8 hour intensive
introductory course.
Open to all Nam Yang members who
have completed their Sum Chien Grading.
The staff (Gun or Kun in Chinese)
is the weapon most characteristic of Shaolin kung fu. In fact staff techniques
form the basis of all long weapon use, hence learning the staff is the
key to learning the Shaolin weapon system. This course is designed for
those with little or no weapons experience and will comprise the following:
An understanding
of the staff as a weapon.
How
to look after a staff.
Learning
the 1 st Nam Yang staff routine (Shaolin Tong Cher Kun) in its entirety.
Basics
of staff use eg stance and grip.
Coaching
on performance of the routine.
Advanced staff training and
coaching for competition will be available in the future as a follow up
to this course.
The course will cost £75.00
(under 18's) or £85.00 (adults) (+ £10.00 if paid on day).
This cost will cover: an oak staff; 8 hrs training; course notes including
a step by step guide to the routine; a certificate to be presented on
completion of the course.
Special Offer: Weapon
carrying bag. Normal price £20.00. Bought with this course £17.50.
Very strongly recommended if you do not have one already, so as to be
able to transport your weapons to and from training responsibly and without
attracting unwanted attention.
