Sensei Ichi it

[@integra2398]

Hello.....this may sound like a stupid question....and I know each system has it's own requirements. But I would like to know what makes or how did u acquire the label of Grandmaster? I have always been under the impression that a GM was one at the very top of a system......Say someone that has invented or produced something......not someone that took something already invented that someone else thought them.......I hope this question is not taken as mean spirited....that is the last thing I am trying to do.....I only as because I see a lot of people online with the title of GM and they look in my opinion like GM = Great Miracles in their movements as well as explanations of their art.....Not that u look or explain anything like them.....thanks for taking the time to read my question

[@91Grzesiekb]

Sensei, show yours try spin for us...

And here I am, 3AM, trying to learn how to impress some people for a few seconds

I think that is the purpose 🤣

See my public commend. U will learn some thing

I’ve been trying to learn that for years now my staff stance can be deadlier

[@SenseiIchi]

Hamza Sarwar Nice! That’s what I like to hear!

[@georgejoseph7170]

Hai mr. Hamza. I put a public reply.I did it for u. U love to learn. And if u r patient, I will get it. No doubt.

[@woomynation]

I actually self learned how to do this, but wanted to find a video on how to do it properly (I end up spinning stuff too fast that it flies out of my hand because my hand can’t keep up with the speed lol)

[@SenseiIchi]

I mean that's good right? Just need to learn to control your new found power and speed. With great power, comes great responsibility

[@pbac9570]

I'm trying to find out how to make it spin continuously using only one hand.

[@LewysC]

Figure of eight movements probably

[@inanutshell6533]

u can also use this method, after just 5 days of doing it i can do it fine, and right now almost a month and i can spin it for about 100 spins, just try doing this method over and over u will find out how to do it

[@aricohen779]

found this by accident because I'm high and my friend is an idiot good stuff bro keep it up I'm gonna find a big stick and go fight crime now

[@dal2137]

yeah good luck when someone pulls out a gun

[@ayanabdul9704]

@potato it may look like it would shield you, but your eyes just don't see something at that speed. It would probably not even hit the staff or go through the staff, very unlikely it will shield you though..

Learned it today, thanks for the video Sensei. Did about 50 reps each hand, building that muscle memory, now my fingers are sore, ha ha.

[@SenseiIchi]

Right on!! Good for you. Now you can twirl anything, thank you so much for sharing and I'm sorry about your fingers. It will pay off tho!

[@MichaelLevi00]

Cool trivia time. The item under the name "Bo" translates to staff. It originally came from Okinawa and was adopted into Japanese martial arts. The bow on the other hand shoots arrows. So remember the Bo is staff and a Bo Staff is staff staff.

[@Zhisaoka]

Dude, my dream is to spin a staff. I watched one video and pratised for a hour on my own outside. Now I can spin fast and behind my back and without knowing it I learned how to do the one finger roll on my own. It’s cool to know how to do it completely. Edit: I usually add a normal roll to it and I usually use it before I start and after.

[@bluej8576]

Ive naturally been able to do this since childhood, also spinning a ball on the tip of my finger

[@pawarsandip527]

Truly appreciated... I'll tried ..This way is more easy...

[@SenseiIchi]

Scot P that’s awesome , I’m glad it worked out for you.

[@srikanthislegend]

I agree with you master...

[@Callmehazy509]

I taught myself how to do this watching movies lol came here for tips i can use a sword in a similar way

[@SenseiIchi]

Good for you, that's awesome. I do a reversal from a front to back grip using the same finger roll, but its next to me not above me. It's on the handle of course, not the blade.

[@mine-rb4hy]

how do u finger roll multiple times like transition from the first one

[@Callmehazy509]

Im not super great and holding it above my head is kinda scary i just roll it over and under until i feel like im losing control

[@KangarooFam]

Ah yes, Darth Maul learnt from you.

Great tutorial Sensi! Just the move I've been wanting to learn. Can we get a tutorial of a form using this finger-roll spin, over the head (getting a long spin over the head).

That is an awesome fluorescent green bo! I was wondering where did you acquire it, also how much more or less was it, in terms of its cost, if you do not mind me asking? I would like to acquire one for myself! 👍 ☺ ✌

[@SenseiIchi]

They don't make this color anymore but they have one in silver, it's only $50 usd. That is a great deal.

[@Soldier-of-God.]

@@SenseiIchi wow a silver one is awesome as well. My utmost sincere apologies for being a nuisance, yet again Sensei Ichikawa, where would you recommend, that I could go and purchase, the silver bo online? Thank you for your response, greatly appreciated, Osu! 👍

[@SenseiIchi]

ニュージーランド・スイサイド not a nuisance at all. I love talking to people about martial arts. I’d say century’s website is the best place to purchase that BO. They’re very good about dealing with customers, so if you have an issue they can take care of it for you and make it right.

[@Soldier-of-God.]

[@Durkie52]

Are there any videos that actually show "HOW" to use a staff? I learned years ago (probably before you were even born) how to actually use one for defense. There was some spinning and such but now I hardly see it being used for it's real purpose. Also, if you learned staff/bo then anything similar could be used as a weapon...a mop, a broom, a rolled up magazine etc.

[@kaylaulya9304]

Good good good

[@MrThetrollking]

Im a really big and equally strong person. Should i be using a heavier staff?

[@SenseiIchi]

A heavier staff would probably feel better to you, too light and you might toss it up into the cosmos!

[@SnakesRobbs]

How would it be possible to do it twice without letting go of the staff?

[@SenseiIchi]

senpai snakes that’s funny you should ask, one of my students asked me that yesterday. There is a way to do it twice. It involves a roll using your middle finger, then back to the first finger. Kind of like a coin rolling over your knuckles. I’ll make a video of it and share it Monday. Soooo subscribe and stay tuned!

[@jezuzai8949]

So when you multiple rolls, is there any need of change on the handling?

[@SenseiIchi]

That depends on a few factors. Are we rolling with our fingers or hands. With hands there are a few ways to do it. There is a butterfly grip and a hand over hand, which are the most common. There is a way to mix/combo this finger roll into a butterfly grip, which I can make a video on if you'd like.
