Congratulations on your first post! :D

 

Make sure you stop by the Introductions forum and introduce yourself!

 

I'm not sure if you'd consider this a "strange or rare" weapon style, but I've been trying to train myself to use the Double Tai Chi Fan. They are basically the fans you see Geisha hide their faces with, but these have metal blades in the fabric to weigh them down and make them a little more deadly. I have a videotape that I'm supposed to use, but... it's kinda hard to practice your tosses in the living room :lol:

This is the first time I've ever tried to learn a weapon by video. I've learned some tricks from the Kicknastics tapes, but the double fans will be the most complicated thing I've learned from a tape.

i haven't even trained with one weapon yet, thinking about a bo, but i saw a few people competing with some of those weapons. they were good and won b/c everyone else had the normal and they were flashy.
