Bo staff techniques

This exercise is part of Divine Body Practice

Exercises by or assembled by John Eagles.

Bo staff exercises are really pleasant to do. You don't need to be a fighter to enjoy this. It's a pleasure to be able to move the stick around in many ways. It trains your coordination and flexibility and strength in many muscles.

Guarding

Note that in one full cycle there are two moments that your stick guards in a downward movement, and two moments that your stick guards in an upward movement. When you practice it is good to single out these different types of guards so you get more awareness of how this defense can be effective.

You can also twist the staff in front of you without moving it to the right or the left side of your body.

Guarding while walking

This exercise is the same as the one called 'Guarding' above. It's a guarding technique, but here it's done while walking back or forth.
