Shang_Jone_Ja Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I have actually learned or am in the process of learning a lot of different weapons. At the top of my list is the Katana. That is the one I am concentrating most on right now. My signature list all the other weapons that I train with. Weapons that I love to train with: Katana, Nunchuks, English Long Sword, French Rapier, Throwing knives, Arming Sword, Bo Staff, and English Broad Sword, and Guns.Pain is the best instructor, but nobody likes to go to his class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shudokaratemomma Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I just started an oar kata, meaning last week. I have learned 3 bo kata, but learning the oar is proving to be a bit difficult for me. Maybe I am "thinking" about it too much. I enjoy learning weapons, so far having learned one sai kata, one tonfa kata, and the 3 bo kata. I would tell you the name of the oar kata, but I am embarrassed to say I can't remember the name right now. The family that kicks together, sticks together!

Crimson_Lotus Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Well, we've been doing staff for a little bit now. I love it...just have to get accustomed to hand placement "The more you sweat in training, the less you will bleed in battle." - Motto of the Navy Seals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still kicking Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 shudokaratemomma -- If you like bo, you will probably really enjoy the oar, AKA kaibo or eiku. You are right, it is a little harder, because it is not symmetrical. It is obvious which end is the oar end, but not so obvious, when doing a kata, which side of the blade should be facing out. I like it because it has more weight than the bo, so you can generate more power.We do not do a lot of different weapons in our school, but have a lot of weapons kata. We only do bo, sai, kaibo, and tonfa at this time. The first 3 kaibo kata we do are kaibo ten no kata, kaibo jiin no kata, and kaibo chi no kata. These are for 1st kyu, shodan-ho, and shodan respectively. There are some others, but I haven't learned them yet. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
