Fifth Dan Wushu Straight Sword

[chibraxial]

Sword is very flexible , only in the last quarter of the blade it seems. Why is that?

Is it a training sword or do actual battle ready sword wobble like this too?

[fzeeshan]

@chibraxial I think the real sword is also flexible but this one is used for training only

[Lynwe]

I can do it until 1:03

should I do it as much as possible like the guy in the video, or is he just performing it slowly to show us the details?

[nameless535]

This is very nice. What is the name of the series that this is from?

If this is intermediate then I wonder why it's the first one I'm learning?

[sirhighlanderdude]

you learn weapons in levels. there is no beginner jian form. so the fact that you learn the first jian form means youre intermediate cuz you start off with gun and dao first.

or maybe your schools cool and lets people start off with whatever form they like.

I never finished it X(

My school does kungfu but I have a wushu teacher and she was the one teaching it to me.

I never learned any wushu gun or dao but I would like to. I probably could watching these videos enough haha!

[mel956]

she was probably teaching you it so that you have something uniqu about you for your school, or maybe something to perform at a competition (does your school compete?) plus, learning higher up forms could also help you with your basics. when we were preparing for our first competition, our team consisted of me with guan dao/ pu dao, my friend with dao, and my other with jian. we all did chang quans too :D

Great...

[cornbreadalh]

if you do not mind me asking... what website do you purchase your instructional videos from?

[lisa00256]

Is this sword form available in an instructional video? If yes, will you post the site.

[fzeeshan]

No this is from the instructional vcd which i bought from a martial arts site.

[lisa00256]

What is the difficulty level of this form? Looking for opinions. For those who are learning it, what do you think is the most challenging?

[fzeeshan]

This is an intermediate form. There are three other forms before this one and six total in the set. Most people don't really learn all six form. They usually do one or two and a personalized form.

[jubes911]
