Nunchaku-do basic strikes 1 | Dojo den Drijver

In this video I will cover a few basic strikes:
gripping
1st upward strike
1st downward strike
These strikes are the fundamental strikes to the Nunchaku-do system and they are very important. Everyone who started with Nunchaku-do started with these three strikes.

Thank you for making this video as promised! The gripping warm up, or technique was new to me, so I'm glad to have learned it. Although I probably need to invest in a foam nunchaku if I'm going to be trying new techniques. The upward strike I'm already very familiar with, but the downward strike is also new for me, or at least it is when catching it above the shoulder like you demonstrated. I am more familiar with the freestyle grip in the yellow section, but I'm not a stranger to the proper grip towards the bottom of the handle.
