Weapons
Although empty hand work is initially emphasized, students are eventually introduced to training with weapons. After all, training with classical weapons is an integral part of traditional kung fu. Furthermore this training develops our strength, coordination and general martial abilities. Eventually, a skilled White Crane practitioner can wield any object as a weapon.
Weapons play is only introduced once students have a good mastery of the basics. We commence with our famous 7 star staff. Thereafter, a host of other weapons may be taught depending on student’s interest and abilities. Amongst these, we have: Spear, sabre, double sabres, sword, double swords, daggers, halberd, horse cutter sword, short swords, double iron rods, 3 section staff, whip chain, axes, tiger fork, etc. Other more improvised weapons are also quite popular and include the fan, cane and umbrella.
