Hi students and friends
From now on I´m going to show you all the basic ejercices and routines of Straightsword (Jianshu)
First we have to choose the right straightsword
remember, when we hold the sword, we should lay the palm over the handle of the sword
and the tip of the weapon can't be higher than our ear
When we chose the sword, the blade must be straight, with a hilt and a tassel
Jian Jian (punta) Jian Shen (blade) Jian Bing (hilt) Jin sui (tassel)
First we´re going to know some basic techniques of this routine
Ci jian
Another angle of Ci Jian
Pi Jian
remember the strenght should always be on the blade edge
Dian jian
Liao Jian
Another angle - Liao Jian
Gua Jian
Now I´m going to show you the 16 straightsword routine
When you are practicing this routine remember to always do it with the Jianzhu (sword`s fingers)
We open the hand and the 3 fingers meet
I hope you had learnt. See you in the next video of "Yo practico wushu"
