| The nunchaku consists of two pieces of wood of various lengths that are joined together by rope (originally horse hair) or a chain (originally the 'bit' from a horse's bridle) to create a formidable weapon of self-defense. Audiences are consistently impressed with martial artists' dazzling and innovative routines using the nunchaku. In this video, Fumio Demura sensei teaches proper grips, stances, swings, strikes, blocks and a basic beginner's kata. (Approx. 52 min.)
