Synopsis

Have you ever wanted to know how to properly handle those nunchucks you got for yourself? Or, did you think it might be fun and rewarding to be able to learn a proper bo staff form? Beginner or advanced, student or instructor, this manual will help you understand the different types of chucks and bo staffs you can purchase, the proper techniques and formal training methods that you can learn and apply just like in a martial arts studio, but at your own pace. This manual was created by Masters Guy and BJ Bruno, both high-ranking black belts in WTF Taekwondo and founders of the World Martial Arts Weapons Alliance (WMAWA), to assist their students in learning how to handle the nunchakus and the bo staff . The manual also includes a classroom format laid out for interested instructors to effectively teach others in these traditional and time honored martial arts weapons. This manual has over 200 black and white graphics to help give you a clear view of the stances, blocks, strikes, and positions necessary to learn the forms. We also have coordinating DVD's available to use in conjunction with the manual that show the same things, only in action. Please see this site for more information. Don't set your chucks or bo staff up on the shelf to gather dust! Get this manual, pick up your nunchucks or bo staff, turn up the music and learn to have fun with them! Use them in your daily workout, and you will have a great, non-boring way to get in shape and stay in shape! NOTE: This manual is recommended for students and instructors currently or interested in becoming members in the World Martial Arts Weapons Alliance. It isn't necessary that you have prior knowledge in the martial arts, but it will be greatly helpful to you prior to the purchase of this manual.
