INTRODUCTION

A lot have been said about nunchaku, but in the end the information available is little considering that the nunchaku is a well-known weapon, and it has been very popular with Bruce Lee movies, or with the Ninja Turtles TV series. Freestyle Nunchaku is not easy to define, but the idea is the use the nunchaku, which consist in two sticks attached together, in whichever way the user want. With this, freestyle nunchaku can be seen as an object manipulation art. The history of nunchaku is not known, with many theories going around it. Some said it was a horse bride, a flail for rice, and other theories. In the 20th century, the nunchaku gain popular in martial arts with Bruce Lee movies, even though there aren’t any traditional kata which involves a nunchaku, hence it wasn’t a popular weapon in the old times. Now, since the 1970´s, the nunchaku has been adapted as an object manipulation art, coexisting with martial arts, even though there has been an argument between the two of them that is not part of this e-book. This e-book was made to help freestylers around the world to get better with their style. This e-book contains many links, all of them goes to the site www.nunchakututorials.com, so be sure to allow the access to that site, in order to expand the knowledge with videos and tutorials. As the years have passed by, I have been always trying to create “a place” where people could expand their knowledge of freestyle nunchaku, and to preserve for the future the classification system of moves and tricks, so it can be easier to learn existing tricks, and to expand and discover new ones. I think that this e-book may be the solution for that goal, and when used with the links that are all across this e-book, you will have a context of where the tricks are coming from, and with that you will have a better basis to explore and discover new tricks. The use of this e-book must be with an internet connection, because most of the tricks that are here have links to www.nunchakututorials.com, were the videos demonstrating or teaching the specific trick are. You have access to all the links that are in this e-book, by visiting www.nunchakututorials.com, but here you can study them in a better context, so it can be easier to learn, but to also have the option to just go to the site. Many of the ideas and concepts of this e-book have been taken from www.freestyleforum.com. This work was based on Chuckology, a board in the forum above mentioned. This e-book is and will be forever in update mode, because freestyle nunchaku is expanding more and more.

SOME QUESTIONS 1

This is a how to e-book, what are you teaching exactly? I’m teaching some nunchaku movements, so the reader can learn them and use them in whatever way they want. In order to help me keep all things in order, I present the tricks with a conceptual base, so I can keep better tracking on what I’m doing. This is neither a martial arts course nor a self-defense course and neither am I qualified to teach those things. I’m just showing some tools so people can use them in their style of freestyle nunchaku How did you learn all this stuff? I learned how to make a nunchaku on a website, around the year 2003, and then I learned the basic spins by myself. After that, the websites of people that posted freestyle nunchaku material was my place of learning. Next http://freestyleforum.com was my home, and there I have learned lots of stuff. What is so special with this e-book? This e-book will give you an insight of how to classify and understand freestyle nunchaku. There are many ways to understand the movements involve in freestyle, and the approach that we have taken here is to watch what happens and describe it, just that. Someone who has never read this could get to a very similar understanding of freestyle nunchaku. What style do you teach? I do not teach a specific style, instead I give tools to the reader, and they can use them in whatever way they think is better for their own style and flow. Of course here I’m talking about freestyle nunchaku. For martial arts for example, most of these tricks are useless. Why should I read this? Because here you will have a lot of information all in one place and you will be able to learn fastest than having to look for everything by yourself. Do you give any promise to the readers? The only promise I can give is that whoever read and use this e-book (following the links to watch the videos and tutorials), will be able to learn the tricks A LOT faster than me. All other promises like “you will see the results” and “you will be better in no time” depends exclusive on the freestyler and their dedication to learn.

COMMENTS FROM READERS

This is the part where I will put the comments that readers send to me, and will be available in future versions of this e-book. As this is version 1.0, this is empty because there haven’t been yet a reader who read this by his/her own will, and also because I don’t want to lie and invent some comment =P I hope that in the next version I can delete this part and add some real comments!

ABOUT FREESTYLE NUNCHAKU

Freestyle nunchaku is a performing art that use the nunchaku to make movement and to create flow. The freestyler or nunchaku spinner will create combinations of moves, according to their mood and unique flow, to create a visual representation of this art. There are many styles to perform, some spinners like to spin the nunchaku as fast as they can, others prefer to make the spinning slower, and others like to mix styles. It just depends on flow of the performer, not being right or wrong styles. HISTORY

The history of freestyle nunchaku goes back to the 1970’ when Bruce Lee popularizes them in his movies. After that, many people begun to use the nunchaku in martial arts, and some of them step into freestyle nunchaku. With the commercial use of internet, many people begun to search and share info about freestyle nunchaku, and in the year 2002 was created the first freestyle nunchaku community online, in yahoo groups. After that, the same group of people tried to start online projects about freestyle nunchaku, and in the end they all converge to www.freestyleforum.net, the biggest community of freestyle nunchaku in the world.

ABOUT NUNCHAKUS

Nunchakus are in their more basic description two sticks join by a connecting link. The most common nunchakus are wood sticks linked by rope or chain. HISTORY

The history of the nunchaku is uncertain. Many people said that they know the true about their origins, but at the same time there’s another article saying the opposite, and so on. So, as there isn’t any formal historic document that can prove right or wrong any theory, the history of nunchakus is a mystery. Even though, we can still look at the different theories, and you can choose the one you like most. “One popular belief is that nunchaku were originally a short Southeast Asian flail used to thresh rice or soybeans (that is, separate the grain from the husk)” “The nunchaku was originally a rice flail which was converted by Japanese farmers into a deadly weapon to fight against samurai.”

“There are a few more rational beliefs about the nunchaku's prototype. The most credible version is that the nunchaku descends from an Okinawan horse bit (muge). Initially the handles of the bit were curved as you can see in the photo. Later it was changed to the straight-handled weapon that we know today.” “Another story goes to Okinawa, who the same adopted the nunchaku. This gave rise to the theory that nunchaku were originally developed from an Okinawan horse bit (muge)” “The first mention of the Nunchaku can be found in ancient Chinese history, where two pieces of wood tied together by horse hair or piece of straw were used as Horse Brides by mountain soldiers.” “Another ancient tool that resembles the nunchaku is the horse bridle, which was made by two curved sticks of equal length connected at the ends. Some say that the nunchaku was developed from that tool and that the sticks were straightened to make it easier to use as a weapon. The horse bridle’s construction is closer to our nunchaku than the previous tools and therefore the possibility that it was involved in the development of the nunchaku more believable. “

12


“There also exists a version of the nunchaku's history which states that it was once a nightwatchman's rattle or a tool for barking banana trees (the best fabric on Okinawa was produced from banana bark). Finally, one additional version, supported by such experts as Miyagi and Ikeda, says that the nunchaku was copied from a Chinese weapon brought to Okinawa by Chinese immigrants. Indirect evidence of this version is the fact that the word used for "nunchaku" is borrowed from the Chinese language.” “…that nunchaku were adapted from a wooden clapper called hyoshiki carried by the village night watch; made of two blocks of wood joined by cord, the night watch would hit the blocks of wood together to attract people's attention and then warn them about fires and other dangers.” “Another theory involves the influence of the Chinese martial arts during the 13 - 14th century. In this period there was a wave of Chinese immigrants to Okinawa. The Chinese mainly settled in the city of Kumemura, where they practiced with a nunchaku-like weapon they called shuang jie gun, which means "two member stick" or "double part baton”.” “A two piece weapon close enough to the nunchaku makes its first appearance in history in the Shaolin Temple in China during the Song Dynasty (960-1127 AD) when the monks started to develop and train with weapons. The Chinese weapon consists of a short stick connected to a longer stick by a chain. The total length of the weapon is over 90” long. In Chinese the weapon is called Chang Xiao Ban. Although the weapon might have some visual resemblance to the nunchaku, as we know it today, it is not likely that the movements of the two weapons would have anything in common at all. Looking at practitioners today the usage of the Chinese two section staff more resembles the usage of the long staff.”

TYPES OF NUNCHAKUS

16


TYPES OF NUNCHAKUS

There are many types of nunchakus, and people choose between them by how they feel with them. Some people like of one kind and others like another. The best recommendation is to try as many types of nunchakus as you can, so you can choose the one you like most. Here is a video I made a while ago, showing the nunchakus I have: http://nunchakututorials.com/articles/types-of-nunchakus/ CONNECTION LINK

The connection link of your nunchaku is how the sticks are attached one to the other. There are many types of connectors, the most common ones being rope and chain. The video in the link below point some differences between chain and cord nunchaku, and also talks about some security tips for your chucks Video: http://nunchakututorials.com/articles/about-chain-and-cord-nunchaku/ NUNCHAKUS WITH ROPE AS CONNECTION LINK

Pros About the Cord Nunchaku: They don’t make too much noise, you can swing them without all your neighbors knowing you are using your nunchakus They tend to be lighter (it will depend of the wood, but generally speaking, they’re lighter) You will notice if they will start to break… with chain they can break with no warning. They look a lot better than chain! You can adjust the length of the rope, for your needs They look more classic than chain nunchakus It is very easy to change the rope.

Cons About the Cord Nunchaku: The rope fries very easy

The weight in the top is lighter than the chain nunchaku The rope last a lot less than a chain They can break with a high pressure trap. They look more like toys rather than a real nunchaku The ninja turtles used chain, how dare you use rope! What is the use of having a nunchaku if they don’t look like a real one?

You can tie them with different methods.

17


NUNCHAKUS WITH CHAIN AS CONNECTION LINK

Attached with bolts

Ball Bearings Swivels

Pros about chain nunchaku They really look like a nunchaku, not a toy. They are heavier (normally) so you will have more power in the spins The chain won’t break so easy…. its steel we are talking here! It will be easier to keep the flow, because of the extra weight They make a nice sound, and if it has a ring, a awesome sound! You don’t need to lose your time re stringing the nunchaku Chain won’t fry with the use

U swivel

Welded chain to iron pipes (I made those with a friend’s help)

Cons about chain nunchaku More weight? no thanks! I can’t see the damage it has? Cool, I can expect any time a flying stick Ball bearings? Did you know they can explode anytime? They do make noise, not so good, when you are spinning indoors at midnight If they fall, they would make greater noise! Beware of falling chain nunchaku, if you are barefoot The ball bearings may damage and makes scratches to the wood if they are drop

Now you can be a perfect ninja turtle! (With real chain nunchaku!) They look more awesome than rope

18


STICK MATERIAL

Foam

Usually foam nunchakus are recommended for learning how to use a nunchaku. I don’t like them very much, because they are too light.

Graphite

I have never tried one of this before, but from comments of other people, graphite is a very good material to spin with.

Magazine

This was an idea I have, to use a magazine as a nunchaku, and the result are a lot better than anyone can expect. They can be very strong and with good weight.

Metal

Metals nunchaku are cool too, but the problem with them is that they can bend with a drop on a hard surface, so be carefull with them.

Plastic

I have never used a plastic or acrillic nunchaku myself, but for what I have heard, they aren’t so strong, and tend to break with impacts

Wood

Wood nunchaku are the most popular nunchaku, and some stores sell nunchakus with exotic woods, and are awesome! If you can, buy one!

TYING THE NUNCHAKU

Different alternatives for tying your nunchaku! 1) 2) 3) 4) 5)

Single String: http://nunchakututorials.com/freechaku/nunchaku-tying-guide-single-string/ Double String: http://nunchakututorials.com/freechaku/nunchaku-tying-guide-double-string/ Triple String: http://nunchakututorials.com/freechaku/nunchaku-tying-guide-triple-string/ Four String: http://nunchakututorials.com/freechaku/nunchaku-tying-guide-four-string/ Airport Loop: http://nunchakututorials.com/freechaku/nunchaku-tying-guide-airport-loop/

WHAT TYPE OF STRING TO USE

When you want to replace the string or cord of your nunchaku, you may wonder which kind of string is the best for the nunchuck. In order to find the best cord, it must have some properties: 1) It has to be strong, and should resist a lot of force. 2) It must resist the friction when you swing your nunchaku. 3) It should be smooth, so you can do finger tricks more easy. Try to avoid twisted cord… just go with braided cord, because with long use the twisted cord can untwist.

25


With that in mind, I have tested many cords, and here are my insights about them: Cotton

My first home made nunchaku was made with cotton braided rope. It wasn’t too strong, but resisted very well the friction. It wasn’t too smooth either.

Nylon

Then I jump from cotton to nylon, but the nylon I was using wasn’t smooth, even though the friction resistance and the strong of the string were great

Paracord 550

Paracord is made of nylon, so it should be in the above category… I don’t know why, but the feeling is totally different to other nylons I have used before, this is why I’m putting it in a different category. This is the connector I’m using now. The friction resistance and strength of this cord are great, and it is the smoothest cord I have ever had. I totally recommend using paracord to string your nunchaku; it is the best connection I have found.

Even though, my advice to you is to test… test as much as you can, and if you find something good, let me know so I can test it too. Here is a picture of the first time I change from nylon to paracord:

26


MOVES & TRICKS CLASSIFICATION

27


GRIPS When you hold one or 2 sticks with your hand, you are gripping the nunchaku Front grip: The nunchaku’s connector is near your thumb

Back grip: The nunchaku’s connector is near you pinky finger

Head grip: Here you grip your nunchaku near the link or connector of the nunchaku

Body grip: In this grip you hold your nunchaku in the middle of the stick

Tail grip: Here the grip is in the end of the stick, the farthest away from the connector of the nunchaku

28


PIVOT POINT

The pivot point is the point where the nunchaku spins around. For example, if you make a big circle with your arm full extended, the pivot point will be the shoulder, because the nunchaku is spinning around the shoulder, making it a pivot point. Another way to understand the pivot point is to imagine a spinning nunchaku, and then freeze a moment in the spinning. Then make it do a half rotation without altering the course it had, and make it freeze again. You will have two “freeze” nunchakus, and the middle point between them is the pivot point. The pictures below were taken using a led nunchaku, with only the free stick lighted up. The lights you see are created by the pattern of the free stick. Pivot point

Description

Shoulder pivot point.

This is achieved when you do a big circle with your arm full extended. Notice how the nunchaku creates a big circle around the shoulder

Elbow pivot point.

For this one, the only thing moving is the elbow, creating a smaller circle than with the shoulder as pivot point.

Tail of the stick being hold

In this one, I use a tail front grip, using the tail of the nunchaku as pivot point.

29

Picture


Head of the stick being hold

In this one, the nunchaku was spinning with the tip of the holding stick moving.

Double pivot point: shoulder and head of the stick being hold.

If you use two pivot points, you create an effect called flowers. The number of petals that the flower has depends in the number of revolutions you do with the smallest pivot point. In this case the big pivot point was a shoulder pivot point and the smaller one was a head of the stick picot point.

30


PLANES

The planes are a flat surface on which a straight line joining any two points on it would wholly lie. Image that when you are holding the nunchaku, you are inside a cube. The walls of the cube will be the planes at where you can swing the nunchaku. So you have different planes where to swing the nunchaku. There are also more planes than the 6 planes that can generate a cube, for example the core plane, which is a plane between the near and far plane (walls). The terminology can be plane or walls, so saying front plane or front wall mean the same.

Back plane: Is the opposite wall to the front plane. Is behind your body

Core plane: This plane is a vertical plane that cuts your body in two. If you clap your hands in front of your nose, you will have this plane between your palms. It is between the near and far wall

Far armpit: is a plane between the core plane and the far wall

31


Far wall: Is the wall at the opposite side of the near wall.

Floor: is the plane that is more near the floor.

Front plane: is the wall that is in front of your body.

Near armpit: is a plane between the core plane and the near wall

32


Near wall: is the nearest wall to the side where you are holding the nunchaku

Roof: Is the plane above your head

Table plane: This plane is between the roof and floor planes, so it's parallel to them.

AERIALS

An Aerial is done when you release the nunchaku and it fly in midair, with a moment without any contact, and then you catch it again The catch of the nunchaku is a very important part, because you have two options: 1) To keep the flow 2) To break the flow If you decide to keep the flow, the direction of the free stick, this is the opposite stick that you catch, can’t change after the grab, so the transition between midair movement and the move after to catch the nunchaku is as smooth as it can be, and it gives a view of continuous flow If you decide to break the flow, you should do it with a purpose, if not the catch will look unnatural, and not so pleasant to the viewer. Check the following video for a first approach to aerials, and to know more about a smooth catch: http://nunchakututorials.com/articles/aerials-basics-and-theory-in-nunchaku/ VERTICAL AERIALS UNDER THE ARM (UTA)

1) UTA Near Arm a) Downspin i) Dolphin aerial: this aerial consist in swinging the nunchaku downwards, at the side of your body, and then throwing it into the air behind your shoulder, and catching it again in front of your shoulder. So with these forces, the nunchaku will make a kind of parabolic pattern around your shoulder. (1) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/intermediate-tut/dolphin-aerial/ (2) Can be link with: (a) Rolls (i) Dolphin aerial to the wheel: This is an advanced trick in which you will need an excellent control of the nunchaku in midair, and a perfect timing to catch the nunchaku by the chain or cord with just two fingers to keep the rotation of the nunchaku, with thus performing the wheel. 1. Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/advanced-tut/the-wheel-from-adolphin-aerial-nunchaku/ b) Upspin i) Inverse dolphin aerial: This is the reverse form of the dolphin aerial. This aerial is a lot more difficult than the dolphin aerial, so first learn the dolphin aerial well, so you know how to control

34


the nunchaku in midair. A tip for doing this aerial is to add an upwards force with your shoulder, so the nunchaku will have a rising force. (1) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/advanced-tut/inverse-dolphin-aerial/ 2) UTA Far Arm: this is a basic aerial, which will help you to develop coordination and control with aerials. a) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/intermediate-tut/under-the-arm-aerial/ UNDER THE LEG (UTL)

1) Between the legs aerial: the tricky part of this aerial is that you can’t lift your feet from the ground, so the control and timing must be perfect, because you can hit yourself easily. a) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/intermediate-tut/between-the-legs-aerial/ BEHIND THE BACK

35


1) Aerial with 360° body rotation: This aerial is done, while your body spins 360 degrees, so you catch it back, after the turn. This can be really tricky to calculate, but with some practice, and good aerial control, can be done with no problems. a) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/advanced-tut/aerial-with-360-body-rotation/ 2) Inspin a) Behind the back aerial i) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/intermediate-tut/behind-the-back-nunchakuaerial/ b) Behind the back UTA aerial i) Tutorial: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/intermediate-tut/behind-the-back-under-the-armaerial/ FRONT PLANE

BEGINNERS NUNCHAKU 101

If it is your first time with a nunchaku in your hands, you should view this video. It shows the basic concepts and things you should learn about freestyle nunchaku, so take a look at it right now! Video: http://nunchakututorials.com/tutorials/beginner-tut/freestyle-nunchaku-101/ LEARNING TIPS

Do you want to learn freestyle nunchaku? Then here are some tips you should do in order to get better at it: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6)

Don’t pay too much attention to names… In the end what matters here is your freestyle! Always try to reverse moves you have learned. If you are really struggling with a move, try something else. Practice with music for a change. Don’t be big headed about your skills or people will think you are a fool. Use a 50/50 approach if you are going to practice for 1 hour, do 30 minutes of stuff you love and 30 minutes of stuff you don’t. 7) Respect the nunchaku… you never know when a lose swing will hit the back of your head. 8) Have fun! KNOWING THE RANGE OF YOUR NUNCHAKU

This is an introductory video, which explains the range that the nunchaku have. You must know very well the range of your chuck, because if you don’t, you can hit yourself. To develop the “feel” of the range of your nunchaku, you need to just practice, and with time you will know exactly the distance were you can swing it. Video: http://nunchakututorials.com/articles/knowing-the-range-of-your-nunchaku/ INTERMEDIATE

ADVANCED NUNCHAKU SPEED

Many times, people think that the only way to use a nunchaku is with the max speed you can put into it, but that’s quite wrong! In freestyle nunchaku, you first need to know how to do what you are trying to do, and

53


after that, you can add speed to the nunchaku trick or move. Like in anything you do with your body, you first need to learn what you are doing, and after you got a good foundation, you can move forward. But why is better learning the basic trick first and then add speed, and not learn the trick with max speed? Why you shouldn’t try a new move with high speed: 1) You don’t know how to do the trick well enough, so it’s probably that you will fail a lot of times. But a mistake at high speed can cause a lot more damage than a mistake at low speed. You can injure yourself or others by learning at high speed. 2) There’s a high chance that you will get the trick done wrong, and your body will learn it wrong, and that will be really difficult to change. 3) You will fail a lot more times, increasing the time of learning, and you will be wasting time when you could be learning something new. So, I should never do my tricks at high speed? Of course you should do nunchaku moves with high speed if you like them, but you should know when to train with speed. Remember that speed is not the only aspect of freestyle nunchaku; you should also mix with creativity, improvisation, smoothness, entertainment, fun, etc… so keep a balance. Always be careful when you are using high speed. Look around the zone you are freestyling, so you don’t hit anything/anyone. Check the nunchaku before using them, so there won’t be any flying nunchaku stick around. When to train with speed: 1) Once you have a good control over the nunchaku 2) Once you feel confident with the nunchaku 3) If you don’t have confidence or you lack control, you will end dropping the nunchuck a lot and probably injury yourself or someone or breaking something, so be careful! CONTROLLING YOUR NUNCHAKU

In freestyle, you need to know lots of moves and tricks to do with your chuck. This is in order to put them in your freestyle session, so it won’t look boring, and you will be able to show your creative linking them up and creating unique patterns and flows, with your body and your nunchuck. But, to do this, you need to have good control over your nunchaku, so you should train how to control it too. The workouts to gain more control over your nunchaku are very short, the longest is 2 minutes, so if you choose one (or more) and you do them once a day, in no time you will get results. The key for having a better control is to do, whichever routine you choose, once a day, until you feel that you have a good control during your freestyle. If you want to do more than one routine per day, then do not do it one after the other… give your body time to rest, and to learn. While you sleep, you “archive” in your brain the

54


things you did during the day, so remember this, and be constant, but don’t do the same routine in the same day. Side Spins: Front Spins: Side Figure 8: Front Figure 8: Figure 8 with wristrolls: Wristrolls: Aerial Challenge: Passes variations:
