Rope, chain, scarves, the options are (almost) limitless!
Throughout traditional martial arts to works of fantasy flexible weapons have found there place in almost every genre of stage and screen combat. Join us for this special 6-week Saturday track and unlock these skills for yourself!
Starting with a plastic chain, this track will cover the mechanics and principals of using flexible weapons that can be easily switched out for a belt, scarf or even a flag. From there we will look at their application in stage combat (along with a few fun tricks and spins) before moving into applying those skills in a choreographed fight.
This track will run from 1pm to 3:30pm November 4th to December 16th (no class on November 25th)
