Stick Fighting Fun Day!
With Sport Stick Fighting expected to take off in New Zealand in the near future Sifu Jenkins held a club introductory ‘how to’ sport stick sparring day on the 15th October 07.
Students new to sparring and who wanted to give it a go joined in using padded sticks to assist with reducing impact and prevent any possibility of injury. These students were taken through step by step the basics of sport stick fighting. Students with sparring experience also participated putting on a great display of their speed and skill in the armour.
A lot of fun and a great fitness work-out was had by all. The advantage of Sport Stick Fighting is it is separate to the art of Doce Pares so it was good to see so many Wing Chun students getting involved and enjoying themselves.
Stick fighting is an exciting new combative sport and suitable for those new to martial arts and for martial artists who want to try something different or to train in a sport that allows them to continue training in their current martial art while expanding their skill base, fitness or just for pure fun
