It may be a midlife thing, I’m 54 and have challenged myself to master nunchucks. I have been practicing since beginning of this spring, minus a month I had both wrists and hands with stitches from dog bites. It hurts still but I’m back practicing again. I’ve video of my progress and I think I’m doing pretty good. I love it, Bruised up, Pippi

Just so everyone knows ken is the best at giving tutorials on nunchucks. I have watched countless hours of other people giving tutorials on nunchucks and all's they say is ok you just do this, this, and that. Oh don't forget to roll your wrist. Never explaining exactly what you need to do. Then I saw ken and I was all like Damon this guy is like a Bruce lee student nunchucks. Lol also I put batteries in my foam chucks for a little more weight. Thanks ken, you're the best.
@kalel467710 жыл бұрын
***** yes I was looking for a way to give them more weight and the guy said put batteries inside the pvc pipe and tape the bottom. I like them better now because more heavier and I am still protected from injury more :)

Ken! I am so glad I found out about you! I have been a martial artist for 16 years, and have been using nunchakus as a weopon for a long time. Only recently have I been getting into flow arts ... I think you're talk on practice and injuries is hugely important. I almost broke my elbow after watching a Bruce Lee video. Although I learned a lot, and am way better, way to go on promoting safety! (Can't wait till you teach them on fire, that is a def goal)

Thanks for the video. Learned a few new tricks. Earned a new respect for you when you dropped them and didn't edit it. I agree wholeheartedly; everyone makes mistakes with them and anyone who says otherwise is lying, editing, or shooting a million re-takes before they get it right. As for the people who say "foam is for pussies", haters gonna hate. I highly doubt they are half good. Easy to leave a nasty comment with the safety of an anonymity. Just keep doing your thing man.
