Qigong Staff Mobility with the ZenKahuna

#AgelessVitality #PrimalNaturePlay #Nutritarian
Gaining familiarity and confidence with a staff takes a while. One of the ways to make the process smoother and more joyous is to simply learn a few basic moves that are used frequently in Qigong and then practice them repeatedly before learning your first Flow Series.

I like the way here you emphasized flow over technique. Flow is everything.

[@zenkahuna]

Thanks Hugh. Flow comes from excellent technique, mindfulness and acceptance.

Perfect I sought the universe for an answer to my shoulder problems and I found you thank you.

[@marjanghodooshim485]

Thanks for all that you shared in this video! Really enjoying playing with the staff and now I have more ideas! Love the background and sound of water! Just beautiful!

[@zenkahuna]

Take your time and feel free to go far slower than I show in the video. Slower moves gives your neurology more time to experience the more subtle aspects of each movement.

Fantastic overview! I've been rehabbing my shoulder with these movements for a few days and can report 100% recovery ! Thank You Sir !

[@zenkahuna]

Jon this is what I like to hear from my viewers. I only post what I have found to be effective through the years. I am glad that you took immediate action and got good results so quickly. ZK

qigong with blue jean and boots...loved it!

Just found this today and decided to give it a go. I will be 60 in a few months, suffer from vertigo and Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, so most strenuous stuff is difficult. Made it half way through before my arms and shoulders felt like they were being ripped apart. Tomorrow I hope to last a little longer. Fantastic work out, and way cool. Thank you. More please.

Hi John. Hope you are doing well. ZK

This was the rancho before the fires. All gone now, but we had a wonderful 18 years there before the fires. The birthplace of Primal Nature Play. ZK

Hello Sir, I am 62 years old and my shoulders are a bit blocked. In front of all the techniques proposed on KZbin it is difficult to choose those which will be the most effective. I chose yours because you inspire me confidence and I really do not regret when I see the results. Thank you very much.

[@zenkahuna]

I'm glad you are feeling better. Keep moving

[@KingOfMee13]

Reminds me of all the years I did Aikido :)

[@houghtonoldfield]

I'm just discovering this art form. I see there are different size sticks. I found one here in Australia that is 120cm long and comes in 3 sections for easy travel. Can you possibly elaborate on the use of the smaller size in terms of the movements done on this video with the longer size? I assume I can use the 120cm for most of what I see here as long as I have the necessary flexibility in my shoulders.

[@zenkahuna]

I use a wide variety of sticks of various sizes. They range from 12 inches up to 5 feet. If you look at other videos of mine you will find the Double Ball Staff, the Tai Chi Bang, the Tai Chi Ruler, and different length and thickness of staffs. Some I purchased, some I made for myself from limbs. Unlike systems that like to believe there is one "correct" length for a staff...in our Primal Nature Play System of Essential Movement Practices we teach our students to create, improvise, customize, modify, and adapt. We use whatever we have to do whatever we want to do. So feel free to use whichever length and width suits you. Use any kind of wood or steel that works for you. Remember that Your Are the Guru.
