keep practising...

just practising in the back yard with my chucks. again. nothing special - just to show im still learning and all that.

note i nearly take my face off with these things a few times so watch out!

im hoping to one day get to do AT LEAST 3 minutes without making mistakes or getting knackered. until then movie maker transitions are a great thing for hiding all the mistakes lol.

I like, bye the way what are those nunchaku?

[moominmama87]

just hollow metal ones, slim line with chain, got somebody to make them for me off website before i knew how to make my own :)

[moominmama87]

btw - halfway through i dont hit my mouth i hit the wheelie bin obviously - just nervous reaction to touch my mouth - i have been known to give myself a fat lip with the sticks.

im going to have to learn to stop moving around like that... - i have the fricken grace of a pigeon. no the bloody wonder i cant dance!

[ruvidan]

Grace of a pigeon, haha, funny! A tip, take it with a grain of salt. When you move, lower your stance just a little and try to balance more to the balls of feet. Then when you spin, let the hips, feet & shoulders subtly try to glide and flow with the momentum. This is simply to get more of a connection of flow between lower/upper body... sometimes it looks a little isolated (walking + spinning) and if they move in unison...well it would be rad, yo! but again, grain of salt... :)

cool! thanks!

that make sense actually. i get a bit spring heeled sometimes now that i notice, which is wierd when i do the nunchucks because when i box im actually flat footed - so i will keep that in mind - thanks!

just takes someone to point it out really till you really get it - will have to practice though!

[porschse928driving]

Laura, are the "whooshing" sounds real? Really being made by the sticks?

I totally don't agree with your self assessment that you need to stop moving around so much. I think that really adds to your whole routine. And as I've said in other forums, I totally think you can dance, you certainly do in your "chucks" videos.

I like the jumping toe kick at 0:26!

[yenanfeng1982]

Very good! Welcome the exchange!

[ThatSatyr]

You look like Uma Therman :D

Except you look like you could actually kick some ass. Those nunchucks look like they know what theyre doing with you :P

I like very much this video. I see that you love the nunchaku. Continue whith your practice and very good luck.

Woah! What was up with the second pair you used? Created an interesting illusion. Very nice and smooth work. Glad you didn't get popped on the last part *phew* close one, huh.
