The bo staff is an ancient weapon used in martial arts or kung fu. It's a well balanced weapon with many use cases. But this week, I learned how to spin the bo staff because it looks really cool when mastered.

I am watch already
Done I have already watch it last time
Please try Ancient Indian Martial Arts (Kalaripayattu)
I saw that skip catch technique on Mike Shake's channel 😁👍
Wait i just watch the blind date it was 3months ago what happend to sophia
Inspired by this video, I tried this myself. In just two hours I've broken: two vases, a ceiling fan, a mirror and a desktop printer
Have you considered doing this outdoors?
Yeah never swing anything indoors or in an inclosed space outdoors.
@@VENGENCE150 was going to post exactly that. Thanks sir
@@VENGENCE150 It was a joke.
@@suleymanbabak1973 Oh. It hard to tell over the internet for multiple reasons. One, it text based so there's no auditory indicators that it's a joke. Two, and the more bigger reason, poeple are stupid. Never know if someone actually did that or not.
Wish all mistakes were as simple as “go the other way” 😂 awesome video!
Thank man!!
Hey, Seth. Didn’t expect to see you here.
Huyaa
@@hafu good god, I hope ur not only doing this for content but also your health will dramatically increase!
You are great, man
Showing your mistakes and how you fixed them makes the difference between a good showcase and an amazing one.
Needless to say, amazing video. Keeping this teaching ethic of embracing the perspective of the student who is still learning; you will make a great and reputable master!
Thanks for breaking down how to do these techniques. Also am glad you are showing problems you ran into and how you fixed them. Most the time you see perfect moves and never the issues that can happen.
I feel your failures and successes are valuable and far better teachings than the “pro’s” that make no mistakes.
I love that RUclipsrs are your "own kind" 😂😂You're the Tom cruise of staff spinning lol Good call on wearing a helmet because I died when the staff hit you 😩I actually hollered when you did around the world like a boss 😎So proud of you for mastering the moves, Hafu! You're so disciplined and resilient 💪🏽
Yeah when he hit his head it was so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 when he put the helmet on and still hit his head😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣 so funny he did all of that at the end 🤓🤓
Yeah 🤣 what’s with the emojis 😇

5:12 dude, I felt that.
As someone who has learned a lot from RUclips, it literally feels like this in the begining- like I need a human to show me I'm not doing it right! I loved this
I remember when I first tried that. I held the staff too close. The staff bounced off the side of my head, broke my brand new glasses and sent my dentures flying out of my mouth to half way across the other side of the room. I very nearly knocked myself out. I still remember what my first sensei told me 25 years ago. My first ever lesson, he said "work on technique first, speed will follow".
I learned to do this with a long water gun, through I can do it pretty fast
Dentures? You are 80 or something?
Dentures? 🤔
Swordplay and Bo staff have been a dream of mine to learn. Your instructions were clear and precise!
Yep -- correcting your stance really helps. With weapons, if you're right handed you'll find yourself in a southpaw stance more often than not. Also, learning spinning without bo fundamentals is part of why you will get banged up when learning. You need to develop an awareness of the bo as an extension of your body for proprioception. It's why we don't teach this stuff till advanced levels. But hey -- you did it despite all the hard knocks! Well done!
My teacher once told me: "Don't be afraid to make mistakes, the best way to learn is to make mistakes. Learn from them, correct them, but do not repeat them."
Loved the video! I know your pain as I have been training myself. The helmet idea is excellent.. I have not mastered the 3 rd movement, but I think your video will help. So thank you!
I appreciate the video, not many people show how much length they must go through to become cool, everyone just does their skills set and shows off to us, makes us feel like fools. Thank you for making me feel normal!
don't fear the pain. pain is a good teacher. it teaches to be careful. helps gaining endurance.
jokes aside. it's a great tutorial. bookmarked for future reference when I have the chance to begin this travel myself. I spent years trying to discover how to do it. now I know. thank you sensei.
Finally to see another beginner learning this. All the same mistakes. Love it. The helmet is a great idea, thanks
Right! That video really made me laugh.
Amazing, very descriptive, great video and I thought your discipline was on point to practice like you did💯💪
I'm currently learning bo staff ,and this was great it broke it down for me to understand 🙏
Now do it the opposite direction of rotation. When I used to twirl, I usually used a few fingers, not a full grip like you're using there. It looks difficult the way you're doing it but it's impressive looking.
I teached it myself.
It took years bc i didnt want to learn it on purpose i just wanted to spin around a stick in a cool way.
And now i found i came up with real techniques.
No you didn't because it's not a technique, you just watched a moron that thinks that and copies others people from youtube
Honestly so relatable!
Archaeologists believe that the wheel was invented independently in multiple parts of the world. Good ideas just feel right.
Omg I needed this so much. I thought there was no hope for me to be able to go faster. Thank you
Gr8 work man, I also started bo staff training during da covid lock downs and funny enuf, i watched da exact same videos plus sum insane skilled 14 yr old (they ain't messing arund). Keep pushing man and you'll do gr8. Remember to also do basic strength training to build ur body up to keep up with your training.
All the best Bro
✊
Last year I saw this video for the first time and it inspired me. I have gotten very good at the Bo staff over the last year and I wanted to thank you for the inspiration.
hi me 4 months ago
Hey man quick question, do you let both spin twice, or just after the left hand?
@@user-kh5bs9mx2n depends, which spin are you doing?
@@ultra17How is it going? Any progress? 😊
@@Haptephobia thanks for checking in i’ve been doing a little no staffing recently but winter has slowed me down because i have no where indoor to train. i’ve still managed to learn and improve on a few different forms and tricks. hopefully i can train more since it’s getting warmer!
Rokushakubo is my favorite weapon in goju ryu. I like to think I have a decent spinning speed, but it ain't that fast. In my opinion, if you wanna look cool while doing it, try pick a better stance while doing it. Better balance too.
Hey! Hafu! I also learned how to spin the staff up to Step 1 today by watching your video!
(Been practising on a 3′ staff for 10 weeks!)
Say, can you not post more videos on Master Yan Li? His technique looks really succulent!
when doing the second spin skill i have a easier time getting up to speed when holding the staff off balance. Have a bit more weight below your hand and it will add a bit of momentum when you change directions.
I love these vids you really made me want to start doing bo staff
I’m 61 and truly inspired after watching your video to give this a go in order to improve my mental and physical fitness.
Thank you for taking the time to produce and upload it.
"I've gotten what I wanted."
A knot on my head. Lol.
I've had many of them from training over the years. Good video.
5:02 best part awaits...
😂
The sifu black robe had me dying, you still looked like a real martial arts sensei💪👏
This was really funny but also educational and easy to follow. Wish me luck!
The most refreshingly honest instructional I've seen in ages.
That hit to the head though, and the added bonus "increased my agility, decreased my intelligence" I was laughing as hell. Another hit like that and you'll start talking to miniature giant space hamsters xD
Its going to be a little bit of a stretch, but I feel this way with a lacrosse stick. Played for most of my life, and it moves like water even when I don't consciously think of it. Its transferred into the Bo Staff quite a bit and its interesting to see someone begin from scratch vs when I started from scrath and could do the leading pinky with ease. Sometimes ya take for granted what you can already do without realizing!
How do you move your gorilla cross stick like water? What are the most important but intuitive motions that you use in a game? Finer details like arm to wrist action etc?
I just laughed all the way through. thanks for sharing your experience . You are awesome.. haha. cheers.
You gave such an inspiration by posting a 8 min Video 👍🏻. I appreciate ur Effort and Dedication also ur mindset to never give up
I was taught to never take both hands off the weapon. the only real spinning that we did was the twohanded twist. but it was pretty useless because you have to grasp the stave with your hands close together, which decreases the force with which you can attack with.
Hi hafu, I m really really a big fan of yours. And really after seeing your all kung fu videos I m so inspired by it, now after telling my dad I m also doing it. Pls bless a luck that I can do my best. And you are such talented and funniest person I have ever seen , 😂😂😂... The way you just broke your head made me feel sad and at the same time laugh... And you will surly succeed one day if you do more practice...
And who's your fav kung fu master? I like Bruce Lee so much... I m really inspired by him. Anyways waiting for your new video soon, hope we will meet soon in your next video... See you, you can do it and God bless you and much your camera man 😂😂. Anyways love you ❤️..
Have a really lovely and good weekends. ❤️😊😊😊
Thank you for this video😂😂😂. Love it
"Do i look cool? I want to look cool!" 😂 so many excellent moments. Also, really helpful to see your process. I forsee head lumps and leg bruises in my near future.
5:13 bro I felt that😂doing karate and practicing with the staff I’ve hit myself plenty of times
Crazy how I learned all of this as a kid watching Darth Maul on repeat 😂
Same only it was from watching all the 60's and 70's kung-fu movies since Darth Maul didn't exist till I was almost 18.
0:12
Thought he was about to go real left, real quick with that 'own kind' bit! 🤣
Fantastic! Love your presentation!
5:11 best moment in the whole video
Bro your such a funny and entertaining RUclipsr you deserve so much more 🔥💯🤗
I appreciate that
@@hafu no problem your an absolute inspiration:)
@@hafu hey man now that you did staff spinning try silambam
It is another martial art on staff spinning
I really liked this video. I have been trying to spin FOREVER, and like you I was doing stuff wrong/backwards. Thanks for making such a cool video.
Congratulations on all you effort man!!
Man, you are really an impressive person and you draw attention to living your life and doing the things you love and facing difficulties and yet there is little support when
Yeh!
Now for the final test. Deflect arrows!
great sound effects. skyrim level up and the tinnitus ringing after you clipped your noggin. funny stuff.
I dont know who you are but thank god for recommended!
Love the edits and how you talk!
Im def subscribe and Bell!
Hey hafu ! on the bo staff why dont you try the monkey on the tree pose, even i learn shaolin kung fu doing the pose is really easy but catching the staff before it touches the ground. I really love your videos related to kung fu because you do everything in the simplest posiible way .
topics for next video can be :-
Learning to use nanchuks
learning to use shoalin sword / traditional katana
learning to use shoalin spear
learning diffrent Tiger,Crane,Monkey,Vipur,Mantis and panda kung fu techniques
Learning to do monkey on the tree pose using bo staff
learning to use other different shaolin/wushu traditonal weapons
learning to use the kai's jade sword from kung fu panda
and do you see a man using some soft of chain weapon in the bbc documentary on shaolin kungfu.
do this i am surely gonna give you a dollar thanks
During the second skill, you looked like you were in constant pain 😂😂😭
Excellent video you’re making me want to learn how to use one and also learning what not to do 😂
The sound it made when it hit your head made me lol. Nice work though! I like how you work through each stance and grip to figure out how to do it.
If we get Hafu to 1 million subs, he would be so happy
I would be ecstatic
Fun fact: A group of hippos is called a "bloat."
Valuble information. Thank you.
I Will sub man, this is strictly funny
Totally a new sub man, Keep it up
@1:25 dam he's spinning the staff so fast right off the bat /s
We have all hit our heads or our knees with it. I bashed my knee with mine during a form at the tournament. I just carried on. You're also missing basic spin 4. I practice Shaolin do. Learned the 4 basic spins in one class. Bo staff is not my favorite weapon because my arms are hyper extended and it feels awkward to me. Try the Quan moves next. Now thats a challenge but fun.
The interesting things is, I did baton twirling first so when I picked up my staff first time I could do these moves anyway, but I've watched this all the way to the end because your enthusiasm is just brilliant. I enjoyed this video thank you.
Educational and Funny thanks for taking those hits for the sake of our education, I'm grateful 🙏 hope you healed well!
I also tried the pinky one but got hurt and stopped it after doing it for 1 week 😅 now I'm a wushu sanda player 😂 i might try that again
Did u completed your kung fu training ? How was that ?
And can u plz tell us how many things u have learnt and how many things will you try to learn ?????
This is the big question in my mind 🙃😎
And tell us about yourself
I'm really impressed how hafu does these kinds of challenges
I think this video have so much philosophical meaning , i really enjoyed it . thanks
“Increase my agility, decrease my intelligence”
Bo in Japanese is actually staff,so the title actually says” staff staff”
Yo Hafu! I just started spinning randomly myself lol. Been having a lot of fun with the Bo Staff tbh.
I am watching your videoes when your subscriber 100k .Now you made a big channel .Continue bro and al the best 💓💓💓
Lmao, I learned these techniques myself as a kid messing around with a stick and following its flow
🥳
Ikr ℹ also .
Omg your my new idol now and i love your video!
Been looking into teaching myself to use a staff. This definitely brings hope
Great video. Now that I have a back yard I have been wanting to brush up on my bo staff skills. I've had the pleasure of training with Jake Mace several years ago. His videos are amazing. I will say that he makes it look way too easy. But that is a credit to his skills as a martial artist.
You're really funny! had me laughing the whole video.. but seriously doing a good job
When you showed up at the end dressed up like Bruce lee I actually screamed Donnie Yen when I first saw you hahah!
It's funny that you are showing this, as I kid I loved the bow staff and I practiced all of this is out knowing. Amazing to me :)
Hi, Hafu. Hoped you learned more from the master on mastering the staff. And you can probably learn and show off more advanced staff techniques like the ones showed in the Journey from the West by the Monkey King.
Love the 2 fishermen just sitting there in the bagground. Great stuff.
Just discovered you. Loved this…great video. Hilarious too!
The end part is almost lije the movie "Blind Fury"..!! A really cool skill to learn. I am going to try aswell for a month. First finish stick balance a small stick mapping the arm!
Btw I am new to this channel, great content, keep it up🤸
Great teaching, great video.
The fist one skip catch is not a martial spin. Only used in movies so the camera can see the stick, by you tubers and baton twirlers. The upper cuts especially one handed always put your right foot forward (if the stuck is in your right hand, the body needs to be able to turn with the stick, start with two hands as the left hand can help guide the stick and don't hold the stick in the centre 2/3 infront. Oh you got to that :)
Great video. Technique is everything & practice. Awesome
nuff love Bro, your braver than I
3:04 - oh geez. The helmet came in handy that time! I'm going to include protective goggles when I start to learn that one.
This guy is an amazing RUclipsr, very entertaining
As a staff amateur myself, when you were excited about how fast your staff can spin i knew immediately through the power of the force that you would bonk yourself and it such a satisfying sound when it's not me getting bonked
Terrific video! Not sure that you will see this 3 days after posting, but I think you'd make the next level of 'effortless" progress if you engaged your Hua. The two example videos that you watched show them moving their hips rather than their knees or arms, as the power behind the staff. It looks like you are using your arms and shoulders for power. If you can 'wiggle' your hips (kinda of like moving a hula hoop) and transfer the power through your shoulders more like hinges, it might make everything more effortless (in your sleep) and relaxing. Of course, you have to go through the steps that you showed in this video to get to that level of control, so that you can shift the center of momentum down to your hips. I don't know if "Hua" is a Kung Fu or Tai Chi term? If you can make another video after you figure out and implement what I'm trying to say, I think it'd make a very cool comparison to this one.
Superrrrt coaching brother.hatsup u
Ive tried this standing up on a kayak and spin the paddle it acts like a propeller good way to strengthen your upper body and balance.. the paddles on the end make for a slow and steady motion it's really hard though. I'm sure we'd love to see you try it
Thanks so much you explained it really well, so I can understand it... and you made Me giggle.
5:30 love the red mark on his forehead from smashing it with his staff
Definitely a good skill to have, personally, i had a custom 2 piece steel staff, it screwed together in the middle, made it easier to transport in my kit bag, nice thing to have camping, makes a good walking stick, weapon, you can use it to pitch a tent, really versatile, especially if its a two piece staff, and i carry it simply because i did martial arts and figured i may as well use what i learned 😂 love hearing that staff sing though, half whistle, half beating the air like a helicopter
Ha ha, I needed this...thanks for the entertainment!
I was inspired to learn the bo staff by gimli from lotr lol. I thought it was so cool the way he flourished in moria. My parents had issues with me playing with axes so I used an axe handle, then I heard about bo staves and how(relatively) cheap they could be
Man I've been in Skyrim for the last couple weeks and that skill level up noise made me question reality for a moment
Thanks to you i can actually do to the spin and the side spin
Lovely lil video....
I'm out in Vietnam learning their traditional martial arts...just started staff work.... Have a little Google for đả Hổ lương đầu côn
LOL, The video made me laugh when you hit your head with the staff, but respectfully, because I've been there and know how much it hurts. 😵 I've banged my body countless times practicing with staffs and nunchucks. Great video!
