Cane Form Video

[Makalakumu]

At the dan level in TSD, one begins to learn various weapons. One of them is the cane (3rd dan). This is the hyung that my teacher gave us in order to learn cane applications. Check it out and lets talk about it...

That form is sweet. I like how the hook on the cane is used to control your opponents movement and puts them in line for another strike. Also I seen a couple of joint locks in there that would shatter joints easily. Once again I have got to say, "SWEET!" I am going to watch it again.:ultracool

that form is almost identical to the cane forms used by canemasters and the goju-shorei system.

anybody have any knowledge of which system is borrowing from which?

 

[Makalakumu]

My teacher is a certified Canemasters instructor so he imported this form into our system from that source. I would be very interested in seeing the lineage on this form. I was under the impression that it was created by Mark Shuey...

I don't have the form on paper, sorry. However, I would like to help out any way I could. The video is showing all of the moves. Perhaps if you saved the video to your hard drive and played it in short segments in would help. We could discuss applications on this thread and I would be willing to videotape some and post them. Let me know what would be useful...

Ok here our the first question the first two move are to the stomach or the solarplex, then the next two are cross the side of the neck correct, then followed by double leg sweeps, are you hitting the side of the ankle for the takedown or the middle outside portion of the calf.

Let start with these breakdowns first and the we can move on Ok.

The first move is a parry that blocks a strike and counters with a poke to the solar plexus. The next sequence does the same with the crook of the cane (and possibly hooks/pulls off balance) and strikes the solar plexus with the crook.

...then the next two are cross the side of the neck correct...

This is correct. These are diagonal strikes. The last strike with the crook could also hook the neck and jerk it downward.

then followed by double leg sweeps, are you hitting the side of the ankle for the takedown or the middle outside portion of the calf.

The canes that we use are heavy peices of oak. The application for these moves is showing that the tori is stepping out of the way of a low round kick and making the uke kick the cane with their shin. The tori can actually use the cane to strike the uke's kicking shin. This really hurts, believe me!

Let start with these breakdowns first and the we can move on Ok.

Thanks for asking these questions, Terry. It really forces me to rethink this form! This will be very productive in helping me prepare for my test!
