Details
by Jd Zitoun (Foreword by), Dani Faynot (Author)
The long staff, wielded two-handed, is one of the most powerful weapons in Philippine martial tradition. Much less known than the one-handed short stick and the double sticks, it reveals an approach to combat based on distance, fluidity, and strategies applicable to weapon classes such as machetes and swords, as well as to multiple opponents.
This technical manual offers progressive instruction in the fundamentals, principles, and combat applications of the Filipino long staff. Designed as a practical guide, this book is intended for both beginners and experienced practitioners eager to expand their understanding of long-staff combat within Filipino fighting systems.
