Tonfa - Karate Weapon Of Self Defense

Originally adapted from an Okinawan farm implement, martial artists today use the Tonfa to perform kata (techniques) and as a self-defense weapon. Even law-enforcement agencies use the tonfa as a replacement for the baton. Indeed, Kubodo (practicing martial arts with ancient weapons) is now an established martial art that can be practiced by men, women and children for defense as well as performing kata in their martial art.

One of the foremost authorities in the field of kobudo is Funio Demura sensei. A former national freefigting champion from Japan and a member of the Black BeltHall of Fame, Demura learned his art from two other world renowned masters: Ryusho Sakagami from Japan, and Shinken Taira from Okinawa. Demura's books and videotapes on karate and kobudo are among the most popular in the world.

In this DVD, Demura sensei shows proper grips, strikes, stances, defense moves, attacks and other techniques that will improve your overall skill and coordination.
