Description

"Simplicity is the shortest distance between two points." ― Bruce Lee, The Tao of Jeet Kune Do

The best of both Eastern and Western stick fighting techniques


The Art and Science of Stick Fighting is a unique, non-style specific, approach to fighting with the short stick. Its curriculum is streamlined and divided into nine logical stages of training that allow the reader to quickly and methodically learn and develop the skills needed for fighting with the stick. Whether you are just starting out, or have been practicing stick fighting for years, there is something for everyone in this book. Also included are systematic workouts and descriptions of how to make and use specific training equipment as you learn and master The Art and Science of Stick Fighting.


The Art and Science of Stick Fighting features

  • Nine levels of instruction, progressing from easy to expert
  • Over 700 photos with motion arrows
  • A "nondenominational" approach to the stick, utilizing the best of Eastern and Western arts
  • A comprehensive, methodical approach to building stick fighting skills


This book stands apart from other stick fighting training manuals because it emphasizes the dynamics of combat. Many other books focus on forms and twirling. The author draws on thirty years of martial experience, presenting the best of both Eastern and Western traditions.


The Art and Science of Stick Fighting begins with the basics, upon which everything else relies.

  • A stable stance
  • Basic footwork
  • An effective guard

From there you learn different types of strikes and how to practice them in helpful, easy-to-learn patterns. The aim is to grow so comfortable wielding a stick that it is as though the stick has become an extension of your body.


Once the basics are in place, you learn the strategies and tactics of fighting with the stick at long, middle, and close range. By controlling the distance, you control the fight!

  • Learn important guidelines for sparring, from light contact up to full-contact training.
  • Learn how to construct your own padded weapons.
  • Learn effective fighting tips that will rev up your game.


Also included are chapters on advanced techniques; combating short ranged weapons such as a knife to long range weapons like the staff. Even detailed techniques to use when your opponent is armed but you are not!


Whether you already study the stick or are just starting out, if you want to learn how to get an edge, The Art and Science of Stick Fighting is for you!
