Nunchucks are a traditional weapon of the Kobudo weapons set and consists of two sticks connected at their ends with a short chain or rope. The nunchuck as a weapon has surged in popularity since martial artist Bruce Lee used it in his movies in the 1970's. It is generally considered by martial artists to be a limited weapon, although it is also one of the least understood. Complex and difficult to use, the nunchuck has a steep learning curve. It is also prone to inflicting injury on its user.
Speed chucks are a kind of nunchuck with a short string, thus allowing for faster movement. In this free video series, our expert will teach you how to warm up to use speed nunchucks and how to hold them. You'll also learn a number of moves and strikes, such as x's, the helicopter, and side to side strikes. Soon, you'll learn a new and unique martial arts skill that will bring you that much closer to being the next Bruce Lee.
