abacus Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Ok, im going to get fighting fans, but i would like to know where the cheapest, best fighting fans can be purchased.also, i would like some video tutoritals. thanx in advance.
Spirit At Choice Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 I've seen a couple of posts on fighting fans. I think the place that has the most selection is superiormartialarts.com. They have at least six or seven different fans to choose from, and they have four videos. One video is Dragon Form the others are Mu Lan. One of the Mu Lan videos is for double fan.I am intrigued by fans too. One of the senseis at the dojo occassionally pulls out her fans. It's fun to watch.All the best! White belt mind. Black belt heart....Rejoice and be glad!
abacus Posted February 18, 2006 Author Posted February 18, 2006 well, i was wondering if there were any online videos that i could watch and learn from. if i have to, i would buy one of those vids, but id rather not. our dojo doesnt have fans, and i dont take the weapons class either, because it costs $$$extra$$$. But thanx, those fans are pretty cheap! Which do you think i should get, the Dragon&pheonix, or the plain double set? if i get two Dragon&pheonixs, then its cheaper than a plain set, and i think i like the d&p one better.Or should i get a steel one or iron one? the iron one im looking at is the "Pheonix Iron Fighting Fan". And can you guess what my favorite animals are?
UseoForce Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 This is a serious question: Why would you fight with a fan? If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
abacus Posted February 18, 2006 Author Posted February 18, 2006 because fighting fans are cool. and they hurt. and they extend your reach, so that you can hit pressure points from farther away.
UseoForce Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 I meant compared to stick, gun, or knife. If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
abacus Posted February 19, 2006 Author Posted February 19, 2006 oh... im under aged, so i dont thnk i can carry any of those around. plus, you need a license. and fans are cool, because n one else here has them.
Spirit At Choice Posted February 19, 2006 Posted February 19, 2006 I think some people are just attracted to fans. I am one of them. I like them because they are feminine, mysterious, and uncommon. Given a choice of weapon in a real fight, the fan would be mighty low on the list, but just as a way of keeping up an interesting, obscure art, I'm all in! White belt mind. Black belt heart....Rejoice and be glad!
UseoForce Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 To each his (or her) own... If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
ShadowFox Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Well the fan that I seen was fuzzy and pink at the end so it look little fruity to me plus when will I ever use a fan in a fight (well unless it a tournament or something) "Martial Arts is kinda like yin and yang when you think about it; it 50% physical and 50% mental"
