Get your next Bo staff in this store bit.ly/3xq9uJp
Hi, i have an 145 cm
Bo that goes at my forehead level. And an 130 cm jo at shoulder level.
Question is.
When i get taller can i still use the 145 cm one as a bo?
For people who say, Bo spinning has no value, I think they are forgetting the importance of the intimidating factor. You see a person spinning the Bo like that, you immediately know that person has skills using it, so the attacker might walk away. That might actually save your life in the wild as well. Wild animal sees that object spinning, it makes it think it can get hurt if it decides to get close to it.
По х....ю
Years ago the ability to spin my dollar store broom like a bo staff in an aggressive fast menacing way while screaming and yelling with command allowed me to save a coworker being attacked by a gang of 12 dudes who already had him on the ground in work’s parking lot… I broke through their circle, scared the big dudes, grabbed my coworker and got us both back in our work building. Don’t tell me spinning is useless, you can also use it to distract, build control and strength. Peace folks ✌
As a filipino, i find this relatable. I used spinning staff as a weapon to decrease their morale and give them fear
What makes the Bo and Nunchaku one of the most cautioned weapons is that you can create distance which is transferred through your arms which can already create distance. Once you're dexterity reaches higher, spinning both shows that you've taken time to master the skills of combat.
Basic combat always comes first and is a beginners line of defense. As I think he said, some schools don't teach the spinning method, only strikes. Now when you're spinning skills become more proficient, and you've taken the time and energy to master the rotations, a bold adversary will have second thoughts.
Reason being that he/she sees that your techniques have no error while spinning your weapon and in turn 9/10 your strikes are even more devastating because of the level of strength and flexibility you have in your hand motions and complete mastered control of your Bo and Nunchaku.
Excellent description of that idea of the value I. spinning proficiency. Thank you for sharing!
I'm 53 yo. Have started learning BO to help with wrist shoulder and elbow arthritis and lower back mobility with some core strengthening. It's the funnest thing i have found that will keep me moving. Thanks for sharing the small exercises that will help build up to the bigger more involved moves. Practical for a fight? maybe not but it sure does help with mobility.
Thanks Stephen! The Bo saved my shoulders for years!
I was looking for someone to teach this sort of sport for a while but I’d found any. So I am really thankful for these videos your sharing with us.
Awesome. So glad you found me. Keep training!
great staff, i love using stick, in algeria in western area we have school specialising in fighting with cane , and they use spin to confuse opponent so they can win the fight as sport they do no casualty, i think this sport is fun, and conditioning and mobility all benefits you mentioned i agree cheers
finally, someone who knows how to answer and explain WHY we love spinning this staff.
Don't forget mobility, when you get older you will appreciate what he's teaching here.
Perfect! I carry a walking staff with me every time I walk my dog. This defense method is perfect!
Thank you Caroll. We all need to take more responsibility these days for our own safety. Keep training!
I love to see a female learning the arts. I hope you're a dog walking Ninja now 🤣
😊😊@@josephsalmonte4995
This video has really helped me to achieve a level of skill I never thought possible, just last week I used my new bo staff skills to keep a crowd of potential threats away from me. Let’s just say that those girls will think twice about trying to “sell cookies” to me!
I have been playing with long sticks all my life, and have taught myself much. And my dad just bought me a bo- staff so I want to advance my skills.
Awesome! Let’s train!
Same just not gotten a bow staff yet
Sounds like you had a rough child hood. I think there's counseling for that sort of thing.
@@luisgomez8635we played with sticks when I was a kid and I definitely didn’t have a rough childhood! Also I don’t need any bloody counselling!
@@luisgomez8635bullying is no joke , it alters so many lives ,usually for the worse . That is why G wanted to learn Bo fighting
All great exercises for old stiff folks too... great for arthritic folks! Great tutorial for novices and teachers. Spinning isn't useless, it teaches space, time, rhythm in real time. Used it my entire life for health and defence response. Now it's all about flexibility and staying fit for advercity's challenges. This video is an example of a very selfless share... goodness comes from empathy and self resilience.
GOT to love this guy!
Thanks bro GOD Bless
So I am really thankful for these videos your sharing with us.
Thank you very much for a clear to the point instructed video with slow motion hand positions 🙏
Nice explanation of training,thank you.
Thank you K!!
Great video! I am just getting started and your teaching is helping greatly.
You are a very good teacher!!
Thank you, just picked one up for a more interesting exercise
Awesome. Keep training!
Loving your tutorials, very easy to learn from you. Hopefully i can learn properly from home😆
Thank you. Great explained for me!
Great for beginners!!!! Great teacher!
I carry a light, but very strong, rattan walking stick. It's is dressed up with some reflective tape for walking at night. Several stabs and strikes are obvious and I practice combos. But what I lack, and don't find on YT, are moves against a bad guy who closes and gets me in his grasp. A topic of interest! Thanks
Thank you ! Sensei Matt.
Thanks a lot,
Good teaching
Thanks, you taught very well, to the beginners, thanks.
Thank you so much. Brand new to Bo, using your channel as a primary resource. Likely one of your older viewers.
Hello , it looks so easy when you are doing the exerise. I am really impressed. Thank you very much.
Excelente aula mestre
Excellent stuff thank you, Matt. I'm 72, have had heart surgery was told I have terminal cancer, dumped all the pills and radiation, took up Aikido and now your bo-staff. I'll say this: it's a better cure than the doctors any day. What's more, it's excellent for body/mind/spirit co-ordination, getting yourself out of yourself and thinking - just thinking about a physically demanding activity that gets you alive again. I've never done backwards and forward rolls before, they have made me feel miles better and now this, another mind and body stretching activity that is definitely anti-dementia, it's just terrific. Thank you for such a lucid explanation/demonstration. I'll get cracking with this right away. Tell all the old farts they need to get on with it, limber up again and devil to the hindmost with any of the big -pharma prognoses, they're bullshit. This is what we need. This really does you good.
You alive?
If yes
How are you?
@@ameershahul2968 Brilliant thank you! Cancer free, no pills, no more hospitals at all, no drugs, nothing - just exercise, fresh organic food and upbeat mind.
one year later since last update, checking in, how are you?@@jerebuck
Im just getting into Bo staff training, i dont have an actual one yet (I have a bamboo walking stick that im using to train) But im really excited!! Bo staffs have always been interesting to me, and i think it's gonna be a great way for me to start exercising regularly!! Thanks for uploading these lessons, i cant wait to see how much progress i can make with your help :]
That’s awesome! I have more than 300 Bo staff videos on this channel. Reach out if I can be of more help!
Thanks maestro!
Brilliant! We teach it exactly the same. 😊
Great-training. Thank you sir!
I would say that spins create dexterity and create a relationship with the stick, teaching spatial awareness and also smoothness of motion. I was a competitive fencer for many years and our coach, Michael Dasaro, who was coaching the women's Olympic fencing team at the time had us doing all kinds of exercises-- footwork with our eyes closed, visualization, fencing each other in wild pirate meles, in addition to our regular drills and bouting. It all teaches you something.
Thank you so much sir.
Thanks for your, technique, just teach us, always, God bless you
Awesome info - Thanks!
Thank you Sensei.
Good Stuff…great information and guidance…Thank You🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏🏿👍🏾
Thanks sempai!
Great attitude and info thank You Kyoshi Matt. Osu.
Matt, I enjoy your videos and techniques. It’s developing my wrist grip, arms, shoulders and hand eye coordination. I find the bo staff soothing and your classes pleasant. I’m a new subscriber and thanks for all that you do for us. It’s appreciated !
Thank you and welcome! Glad to have you training with me!
Hi Matt, just stumbled over your beginners series - incredible! I like your teaching style a lot, and you explicitly show how to do the moves, great! I will definitely get a staff (practicing with a broomstick right now ;-) and continue the whole series till the end. Greetings from Germany.
I like your teaching styles and I love the step-by step instruction that you do I have been trying to work on it for about three weeks I used to to do nunchucks when I was a kid I was pretty good at it now it's pretty good but I had an accident and I'm slow in my head I take my time but I still want to try to thank you for all those awesome videos
the spinning feels good and gets you in touch with the weight and speed and the power....I have a bokken but great practice.
this is great man, thanks, like your point of view
Good teacher 👍
great thanks for efforts
Merci de partager votre expérience!
very clear presentation, i just started to try this, i am a 2e dg bbj and bbjj.....i know i have handspeed.....but this is fun when you get the hip movement correct
Good explanation. thanks you
Sinto-me forte com as tuas aulas, tenho 52 anos de idade, obrigado meu mestre
Thank you so much
Thank you 🙏 very helpful!
Thank you. The explanation of spinning that starts at 7:30 is fantastic. My addition to that is " the other half of the circle". As you pointed out, it's necessary to have spacial awareness. If I need to strike with my cane (Jo technique) and I'm unaware of a chair or lamp post I will have defeated myself. Your analogy of the boxer and the jump rope is a gift. I will incorporate it for the rest of my life. Be Well and Good Journey.
I am very in to learning new things! And am very into knowing self defense! So this was great
That’s great Olivia. Thanks for training with me
Great sir
This is very fun and I fell like he is having a nice convosation with me
your explanation of the role of spinning in practice was very instructive, especially the comparison to the jump rope in boxing as an analogy.
Thanks George!
This video was great! I think I know what I’m gonna start doing this summer now. I’m not a sporty person, but I see this as more of an art. It’s quite mesmerizing actually. Can’t wait to get started:)
Awesome Carly! Don’t wait to start. Thank you!
Thank you for making these. Starting over. These are very helpful. 😊 Hope you are well.
Thank you Deborah. I’m well. Hope you are well too!
Once he said that some people say that spinning is useless this add popped up and said that karate is useless and doesn’t help 😭 This is one video that I found and it’s way more helpful then others thanks 🤩
Ha ha yes I agree martial arts as a whole misses the point when it comes to self-defense. Martial Arts is fun, great exercise, good for the body and soul, great for developing the basic techniques of self-defense, but self-defense must be its own thing. When you use the principles of self-defense, the techniques are not as important. Most martial artists refuse to admit that or don’t know it. That’s not to say that I think rat fighting is the answer or even Krav Maga, I think it goes way beyond that.
Thanks for the lesson bro!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
This is brilliant. You're the best ^_^!
Thank you James!
Very cool, thank you.
Great training of martial arts, thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching and for your comment Prabhaker!
The motions your going through in this display is great for your whole body I know because I would do these drills for like an half hour a day and at the end of about a month and a half I was much more accurate at it and it change my flexibility in the wrist and shoulders. Great for the mind too.
Thanks
This is very good
Thank you!
good,easy to learn............
I am retiring in 6 months and looking for something to keep busy and fit. I believe that I just found it!!
Thank you
Love your instructional videos. You earned a subscriber
Many thanks Francisco !
@@pasquinilli you’re welcome.
Super bro!!!!
Veramente complimenti, spieghi molto bene💪💪💪🙏. Oss
Interesting that is how I do it but I have done research that says pinky leads the way, which I simply don't understand and it does not work with my body/what I'm doing. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. This is a great tutorial and has helped me a lot. I am a beginner, and nobody else has taken the time to show the right way to do it. Thank you for making this video, I appreciate it you earned a subscriber.
Thanks so much. In a forward spin, the thumb leads. In the reverse spin, which goes faster and many prefer, the pinky leads. I say do both and you will master the Bo! Thank you for training with me!
I love yur explanation. i wanna learn this
Thanks! Let me know if I can help!
Basic is my place to start. I used to play with Nunchakus but that was a long time ago.
Really liked those strikes at 10:13 -- similar to the powerful Nangun ("Southern staff"). That's a nice hefty piece of hardwood! Bravo.
Thank you. It is a great staff!
God bless God bless..! You learn more
👍thanks workout
Dang now I have something more to learn I might never carry the staff out running around but there’s always a broom or mop around and I work in hardware part time I can get oak dowel rod at a discount 🤪 love your channel
I think you are good at teaching
Thank you Anarose!
Very good presentation of handling the staff. Please if you could have a video of actual defense use with another trainer maybe, thank you
Very nice thanks
Thank you for watching!
Wise words.
I have magic long stick because I don't see any kind of Bo staff every store in the Philippines but I already learned it so thank you for teaching this ^^💜
That’s great. Use what you can! Thanks!!
this guy is good
very good
Thanks Ed!
Hi Matt. Great videos and instruction for me, as a complete noob (and senior, to boot). While you make these movements seem so simple and effortless, they can actually be a bit confusing and counterintuitive for the beginning student, since they must reverse everything. Showing you from the back (facing the same direction as the student) would orient all the student's movements in the same direction as the teacher, but of course, the student would lose visual contact with the teacher's hands, etc. Have you considered reversing the image (almost like looking in a mirror)? It should be easy enough with video editing, and would make it far more intuitive for the student to better mimic your movements.
Thanks again, Glenn.
Its called "kambu veelchi" in South India, practiced as an art and in defence for about 2000 years or more.
You just solved my confusion 😁
Awesome Carlitos. Glad I could help!
perfect
I have always believed that what ever weapon one chooses , whether a rifle a Bo whatever , the more you have this weapon in your hands the more familiar and comfortable with it you become with it . consequently besides strengthening your wrist and arms spinning helps whatever technique you choose to be smoother like second nature . Without thinking .
Excellent breakdown Danite. Thank you!
Thanks for making this video. You see, i want to learn a skills that would help me if i have a long straight stick which is really helpful. I wanna learn martial arts just to protect my self at school, at the mall (if neccesary), or maybe everywhere. I am currently 13 years old and want to master 3 martial arts and master this skill before i turn 14 because if i turned 14, then i will be moved to a public school (yes i am studying in private school) which is very dangerous and alot of bullies are intense. Again thanks for making this video, you earn a sub
It's nice sir
Thank you Cezario!
Hello Matt 66 years old and just getting over prostate cancer and started watching your video. Went down to my workshop, found a 5 1/2 foot piece of pine rod, maybe a old clothes rod from a closet, and started spinning with you! Always wanted to do this. I have done in the past Kenpo, Akido and Krav Maga. Right now this is just what I needed. Your video is clear and precise. Where do I find Lesson #2 for beginners?
Daniel I am glad to hear from you! I’ll be making a live stream lesson for the Bo today. I have over 600 Bo lessons on this channel and I love making them and trying to get better at teaching. I’ll look for the second in that series but maybe I haven’t made it yet. Haha. I’m not sure. I’ll be live around noon today with the Bo.
Pole arms are the great equalizer. I am small (5'2) on a good day but i kept a 6'+ man at bay when he threatened me. Was working overnight at a gas station at the time and it took putting the staff between him and myself before he understood that No is a complete sentence.
This is a art
Thank you!
I'd love to train with this man.
Thanks Daniel! Let’s train!
@@pasquinilli Don't they have a staff that's made out of rubber so you don't hurt yourself so you can train with it?
Thanks for the lesson - I have been looking for a simple guide to help me use my staff for exercise. As I get older it gets harder for me to run for anything other than the ice cream truck. I will keep posting comments as I progress. Again - thank you!
Thanks for training with me. I look forward to your training updates!
Spinning also can keep someone at a distance of fear of being hit
