I agree, that's where you really get the most out of training. A real, live, breathing and fighting adversary.
That's why we did most all of out weapons work in 2- man drills. In fact, I can't think of any better way to train this type of skill with the nunchuku. |

BRAVO! FINALLY, somebody that knows what they're talking about! I get so blamed tired of hearing about spinning "chucks" around their hands or necks or between their legs, and that's good technique.
