First of all you need someone to train with otherwise you wont get anywhere, i think that the stick or bo staft is a great way to start off with , then wen you become better you can upgrade to a more advanced weapon.

I agree.
Sticks (canes) / staff are the best places to start.

Yeah sticks and staff are good to start off with and are easy to find. Also because anybody can use a knife/sword lethally.
