WEAPONS TRAINING
WEAPONS USED IN OUR SYSTEM --- KOCHO RYU
1) Sticks
2) Knife/Tanto
3) Chain/Rope
4) Yawara
5) Nunchuk
6) Bo
7) Tonfa/ Police Baton
8) Sai
9) Sword/ Katana
10) Weapons of opportunity (W.O.O.)
The primary purpose of weapons training is to learn how to defend against them; unfortunately this means learning how they are employed.
This develops hand speed, hand eye co-ordination and translates into finessed empty hand/body movement.
Where weapons are illegal, eg.- nunchuk, We use the safe legal practice type. This is not for frivoulous use and is taught to responsible students only.
