I'm sure you all know this, but even with the mask, the staff is an immensely devastating weapon. Now, I had always been taught the quarterstaff came to a hands length above your head but perhaps that changes from English to German staffs. While this staff doesn't have the same leverage as the English staff does that doesn't make it a less formidable a weapon. Even with the mask these staffs can and will concuss and may even fracture or break bones, so exercise control! Like I said this is more meant for the viewers not so much the Dreynschlag staff (pun intended)
Yeah, the staff is nasty. Unlike the longsword you cant spar hard with it, since a knock on the head (even with fencing mask or helmet), may cause serious insuries. The "quarterstaff" terminus we use might be a bit misleading, since the english manuals, that you are refering to, always mention larger ones. In hindsight the title "staff according to PHM" would have been more appropriate. In German we called the weapon in this tutorial "Halbe Stange", so translated that would mean "half staff" ;)
I got concussed twice while learning quarterstaff and honestly haven't been quite the same since - took months to recover from the double concussion. Be careful y'all, have fun, be good partners!
@@SuppDiggyDawg The quarterstaff seems like it should be equally devastating and debilitating to the ribs and long limb bones. I have a lot of interest in primitive combat skills including the sling and simple throwing ability.
Excellent video...often times videos like this are overwhelmed with details that overcomplicate techniques....this was informative but also straight to the point
I've been following you guys since your longsword tutorials. I've been looking for an instructional quarterstaff series for awhile now so I'm really psyched that you guys are covering it.
yeah, it differs a lot! From these shorter versions of the staff to the longer ones, that can be seen in various other fencing books. And by this it also changes the way you fence with it.
very interesting, glad I found the video, I really enjoy seeing the difference between the okinawan bo and european quarterstaff techniques! Ich schau mir sicher die restlichen videos auch an ;)
A weapon is effective in the hands of someone trained to use it as a weapon. Otherwise it's just a stick. Train for what might happen. Not for the peace you hope for.
Even an untrained person can really mess up another person with a stick using the tried and true baseball bat technique. Obviously a trained person is more effective but calling it “just a stick” is apt to make you underestimate someone you really shouldn’t.
It is sometimes a good thing to remember that there is no such thing as a "practice quarterstaff." There are only Weapons of different length and heft. Wear protection so that you will have a sparring partner that you can beat into submission more than once.
I don't know if you guys are still answering questions but here goes nothing! I live in a somewhat dangerous area where unarmed or knife muggings have been known to occur and am considering getting a quarterstaff for self-defence, as I do not have the funds or desire to acquire a fire arm and the carry of swords is illegal. Do you have any tips for quarterstaff vs. knife confrontations?
RUN or give them the money if possible! In a knive fight, it's a coin toss, regardless of your martial arts skills. Chances are you will get hurt, possibly life-threatening. If there is no chance to prevent a fight, it's probably a good idea to keep the attacker at distance until you can run. However a quarterstaff in a modern day environment is probably not that applicable for every-day-life. I would check out modern day self defense styles, that focus on situations like this.
@@Dreynschlag Hmm, quarterstaffs might be more accessible than you think! I know at least two friends who live in the same area that have started taking quarterstaffs with them when they travel about at night, apparently it’s been relatively convenient.
I am here because I have an awesome anime and or real life imaginative animation going through my head and I want my main character to use his weapon properly.
Interesting video, new to fighting with quarterstaff and doing research for my character in A Tabletop RPG, but none of the video has discussed tripping the opponent with the staff. Is this uncommon or not very useful in hand to hand combat?
I'm afraid I do not understand what you mean by "tripping your opponent". When it comes to getting your opponent to the ground, then we're wrestling with the weapon and that works very well.
Why is the hand located on the higher part of the staff holding it in a reverse grip? Wouldn't a regular grip be better for leverage and manoeuvrability?
In these days when people wielding knives attack young children, an innocent looking broom handle in the hands of a youth leader can be effective protection. Thanks for the tutorials
You don't happen to know of any place in the Netherlands where I could learn the quarterstaff in person? 😬 (These videos are already so useful, thank you, but I want to try it for myself!)
Hi! The Netherlands is a good place to learn HEMA. There are some great clubs and good friends of ours. However, I do not know exactly who also teaches the short staff after Mair... I suggest you ask for example at Zwaard & Steen, Arto Fama or HVN Historisch Vrijvechten Nederland. Maybe someone can help you there.
Yeah, haha, Gedi had a lasting effect on Bernhard in the final of our last season... ;) As for the Shirt: Bernhard is wearing our PHM conflict management shirt in this episode.
Danke für dieses tolle Video! Sehr lehrreich. Mögt Ihr verraten wie schwer Eure Stöcke sind und welchen Durchmesser sie haben? Unsere sind 1,80 lang, haben einen Durchmesser von knapp 3 cm und wiegen in der leichten Kiefernholzausführung etwas über 800g.
Servus die Stangen sollten für PHM ungefähr 1,6m lang sein, 1,8 ist definitiv zu lange 3 cm ist gut. Und bitte unbedingt Buche, Weißbuch oder Esche verwenden und auf gar keinen Fall Kiefer, Fichte oder ähnliches. (Das kann tödlich enden)
When it comes to fighting it’s generally better to keep up the pressure, continuing to attack while your opponent is attempting to recover from the blow you just dealt. Retreating gives him more time to recover and counter attack
Is it safe to say that for a left-handed person, the stance is simply mirrored? The staff would be gripped with the right hand at the rear and the left (dominant) hand at the front?
Yes, you can mirror to follow the instructions in the videos. But since the staff has two "equal" ends, it does not really matter that much whether you are left- oder right-handed.
I want permission to use your basic teaching technique partly in my fantasy book. Will you permit me? It's not written word for word, only based on what is mentioned.
Glück Auf! Wenn ihr den Stock mit der rechten Hand auf diese Art greift ist Vorsicht geboten. Denn der richtige Abstand zum Gegner ist dabei sehr wichtig um sich nicht selbst am Handgelenk zu verletzen. Denn wenn man nur wenige Zentimeter zu weit vom Gegner entfernt steht und seinen Arm weiter strecken muss entsteht ein ungünstiger Winkel für das rechte Handgelenk. Dies verringert die Schlagwirkung und kann das Gelenk verletzten.
I got mine from a local martial arts supply store. Do a Google search in your area. If not, buy a wooden dowel at Home Depot and have them cut down to size. It’s a wooden stick after.
I think you understand german; Warum seid ihr die einzigen, die den Stab so halten? Also beide Daumen in eine Richtung? Alle anderen Techniken machens anders... ich weiß "Was ist besser"-Fragen sind im Kampf kaum zu beantworten. Hoffe aber auf etwas Erleuchtung :D
Hallo! Die einfache Antwort: Weil es in der Quelle, die wir hier interpretieren, so beschrieben und illustriert ist. Die interessante Frage: Warum ist das so? Ich vermute (!), weil die Halbe Stange von Paulus Hector Mair kürzer ist als die Stangen in vielen anderen Systemen. Darum kann man die beiden Enden der Stange auch wirklich komplett gleich einsetzen und das funktioniert mit diesem Griff sehr gut und schnell, wenn man sich erst daran gewöhnt hat.
Mit körperlichen Einschränkungen ist Kampfsport leider immer etwas schwieriger. Je nach Art der Behinderung gibt es allerdings manchmal Möglichkeiten drum herum zu trainieren. Hier ein schönes Video z.B.: ruclips.net/video/x4khsAPImL0/видео.html
Dreynschlag Respekt! Wo seid ihr eigentlich aktiv? Vielleicht könnte ich ja eines Tages vorbeikommen. Natürlich wird es schwierig sein und wahrscheinlich auch knifflig die Techniken zu variieren, aber laufen habe ich auch nicht in einem Jahr gelernt!
Dreynschlag Super! Ich bin nämlich vor kurzem nach Wien gezogen. Ich komme gern vorbei, wenn es euch recht ist. Ich war auch schon auf eurer Website, habe dort aber nicht erkennen können, wo eure Schule ist.
Am besten du meldest dich über die Vereins-hp zum Anfängerkurs an und schaust einfach mal zum Infotermin im Herbst vorbei. Sobald wir näheres wissen wann/wo /wie schicken wir die Infos an alle Interessierten raus.
Would you be lost in an eternal panic trying to find out which one of your students is the creepy stalker who can't stop sharing videos that show off how manly you are?
Yes that´s not english quaterstaff, it´s german. Nobody said that this is english quaterstaff. It is quaterstaff based on Paulus Hector Mair, you can read this in the video description.
I sure bet this basic attack would hurt to get hit by but the way the hands are gripped seems to restrict a lot of potential force. To me who knows near to nothing about hema it just seems an awkward grip.
It also feels awkward at the beginning ;) But once you recognize that in staff fighting both ends are used equally you will understand the reason for this grip. We will show this in further videos.
I accidentally made a hard bamboo staff though I don't have more muscle ro force myself to speed up cuz there's a chance that I'll just injured myself Soo 😂 I only use that staff when doing some monkey staff moves😂. Man wish I could find a lighter bamboo😆
We take diversity awareness very serious, so no fruit shall feel discriminated. The coconot already had it's time to shine ;) ruclips.net/video/-l_5Yt9LaRU/видео.html

I've been looking for an instructional quarterstaff series for awhile now so I'm really psyched that you guys are covering it.
Glad to hear you like our content! :) Stay tuned, the next episodes will be released within the next couple of weeks. :)
Interesting that the "ideal" staff length is so variant from one master to the other.
yeah, it differs a lot! From these shorter versions of the staff to the longer ones, that can be seen in various other fencing books. And by this it also changes the way you fence with it.
Everyone's got a preference, usually due to their surroundings, or even their height.
It's a good thing they aren't too expensive to make, even a nice one. With experience, each person can decide which length works best for them.
I train with a bo staff and I also prefer its height to be up to my mouth or nose. More manageable. A staff too long and I bump the ground or ceiling.
Why isn’t something like a slightly smaller staff used that could be wielded in one hand is that a different weapon or would it just be to inefficient
There are not enough quarterstaff videos out there in my opinion and this one is cool
You guys rock and I loved the demonstration !!!
Good to have you guys back. Informative. Thanks.
You are welcome! We are glad to be back in action! :)

let me get my mop , start the tutorial.
We had the same idea.
I was practicing with a broom at college last night while I waited for my ride home.
fascinating how much variation there is between martial arts schools even in similar systems.
I've always wanted one made of lignum vitae, though may be too heavy
It is sometimes a good thing to remember that there is no such thing as a "practice quarterstaff." There are only Weapons of different length and heft. Wear protection so that you will have a sparring partner that you can beat into submission more than once.

I truly want to learn a Bo Staff. Can you make tutorials on that. It will be helpful.
I personally don't get my hands into stick combat but this seems really cool
Great ending 😀👌
Why is the hand located on the higher part of the staff holding it in a reverse grip? Wouldn't a regular grip be better for leverage and manoeuvrability?
What is the lightest material you could make a staff from and still be effective? Fiberglass maybe?
Pvc pipes.
@@viniciuspaiva3889 pvc will crackof thats just what its made with. Staffs also need heft and weight to damage an opponent.
Love the sense of humor! Looks like around 20 centimeters (8 inches) taped off at each end?
approximately 10 to 20 cm

This technique is also called "Bonk!" on the InterWebs.
3:19 why this clip have less than 500k views is beyond me
So would these techniques be use with walking stick.
hmmm, the principles yes, however the style with a walking stick would be more sabre-like than this. Check out the art of "Bartitsu" on youtube...

The Forbidden "Bonk!" technique.
When it comes to fighting it’s generally better to keep up the pressure, continuing to attack while your opponent is attempting to recover from the blow you just dealt. Retreating gives him more time to recover and counter attack
I’m assuming there’s an immediate follow up or defensive uses(after all it’s a staff) to make it worthwhile
Is there a HEMA society in the United States that I can find?
What's the difference between the European quarter staff fighting style and the Japanese bo staff fighting style?

Gedi may have been hit with a staff to the unprotected head before. That's why he's asking these excellent questions.

Would the ground to mouth height be ideal for a 6’2” hiker who wants no trouble while on the trail?
oak is ok
Wow Gedi really did some damage to Bernhard's leg.
Haha, finally! After almost 2 years, you were actually the only one noticing it! :)
