thumbs up button click the Subscribe button and hit the notification Bell that way you get informed on our martial arts tutorial grab your collie staff let's get started all right striking on our Collie staff let's go through the three basic drills that's really going to make you more proficient on the Ki staff the first one's going to be one in the bonow grip so toward the middle of the staff we have the single end fighting method on our diagonal strikes we start off in a ready position from a stance right here we're to come out downward diagonal number one downward diagonal number two and we're going to come up on the three and up on the the four coming back around we can come into this High chamber or we can return back to the center into this guard we come out it's one 2 3 4 and then back up remember when you're striking don't keep a tight grip through the transitions between strike to strike as we strike tighten the grip and then relax the grip as we strike tighten the grip as we strike as we strike and then we come back out that's the single end method when we go into the double end method now we can start to strike this from both sides off of the Bon cow grip from here we come out strike the downward diagonal number one rather than bringing this to chamber now we strike that one and we turn it over into the back end and we come up the three on the original end and we come up to four on the back end and we can come back down one 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 using what we learned in the single end method especially on the transition between three and four we're going to bring that transition with us into the double end method that way we're not throwing this all crazy and then you go into the double n method and you're like why do I keep getting crossed up you got to work the transitions from single into the double all right we have an option now on the double end method we can start to slide the hands we're going to incorporate a little bit of footwork in there that way when we're striking on the forehand the right leg is forward we're striking on the forehand on the left side the left leg is forward right leg left leg right leg left leg let's take a look at it together from the top establish your stance and establish your grip we strike that one slide the hands for extra range we transition to that Palm down slide the hands for extra range come up on the three Slide the hand and we sneak that underneath on the four to come back up one 1 2 3 and four this one takes extra coordination because we still on impact want to tighten the grip It's Tricky so practice this one outside so if you lose your staff doesn't go flying into a window so we can transition back one 2 3 4 single end method double end method on short and then double end method with that extended grip we're coming back to our stance we've got one more for our kie staff on the basic we've got the thrust when we're thrusting we can thrust from that Bona grip we can thrust from that saach grip in multiple different angles on the bonal grip we can thrust coming forward we can Circle this thrust with a double Palm down in the D grip on the high to the middle even coming down the low so we can Circle this thrusting with one end striking across thrusting with the other end striking across so we thrust we strike we thrust we [Applause] strike we can change the elevation going down to the plexus we can then use our single end method pop come back around strike the horizontal and then thrust coming back in utilizing our three grips on the Ki staff see quencing combinations of strikes and footwork on the klie staff is a great way to bring your skill to the next level I'm going to break down this eightc count form for you nice and slow see if you can get this down from here from the top we starting our bonow grip we strike one two on the horizontal three we circular Parry down now four we step to the left horizontal vertical five and six now we have a staff spin we're going to turn the tip down down double Palm down into our six our seven is the vertical and then on eight we're going to bring it up into the D grip that double Palm down and we're going to protect our 6:00 on the thrust from here so we don't have to Pivot so far we're going to come back into that Palm up grip with the feet together and slide ourselves back into our Bona grip with our strong stance let's do that again together one 2 3 four five six is the staff spin right into seven and then eight low thrust protecting the six o' we slide this up feet together and we come back out
