Combine downward and upward X strikes across multiple levels in single-stick drills for two, targeting head, hands, and knees, while maintaining balance and building leg strength and coordination.
Add a wittich variation to the X strike by pulling through and back, building muscle memory for the two most used stick-fighting moves, with integrated footwork.
Practice upward strikes and behind-the-elbow grabs in two-stick drills, executing strike-grab sequences with a partner, including the upward X strike and leveling for integration with prior lessons.
Learn the x strike in basic stick fighting, rotating the body, using the cutting edge, and keeping the stick tip ready to stab, followed by the Wittig low strike.
Combine the first three single-stick drills to build muscle memory, develop smooth flow, and solid low stances, preparing you for more complex movements in basic stick fighting for two.
Master the umbrella strike by combining a block with a strike in a three-strike low-high sequence, pull back safely, and protect head and arm.
Chain all six stick-fighting combinations into one flowing drill, coordinating footwork with low-high-low sequences, umbrella movements, and finishes with a controlled rip and loop step.
Practice the six basic stick drills solo, using shadow boxing to build movement and muscle memory when you don't have a training partner.
Master long-distance footwork through in-out, linear Lago mano drills, alternating attack and defense as you step forward and backward to improve distance control and coordinated striking.
Practice tres tres as a leg workout by lowering your stance and moving forward and back, shifting weight onto the back leg. Burn leg muscles and sharpen stick fighting skills.
