The Chinese Martial arts have a rich and varied arsenal of weapons and Mizong chuan is no different. And so rather than just perform forms we also want to make the weapons and their usage come alive by practicing on combat applications, drills and fencing with our diverse mix of weapons, of course safety equipment including head-guards, hand and body protection will be worn. We will use a mixture of padded and blunt weapons to facilitate a true feel for the weapons. |
