Fight Sunday: Shaolin Cudgel

This month’s theme is Shaolin Cudgel

During the workshop we will explore traditional shaolin techniques, weapon handling and a form called Zhèn shān gùn (震山棍) translated as the Mountain shaking cudgel. It is a traditional form from Shaolin Temple taught to Jyri by Shi Decheng, 31.st generation Shaolin Monk. After working with the traditional way we will be playing around and implementing this style into the context of stage combat.

Fight Sundays are open level workshops dedicated to various themes related to the art of stage and screen fight. Every Fight Sunday offers a great opportunity to introduce yourself to the field, learn new skills, or practice the techniques you are already familiar with.

Teacher:

Jyri Sucksdorff has been practicing chinese martial arts for 25 years under several Masters. He is currently training Shaolin under Shi Decheng and Taiji under Lü Baochun. He also teaches weekly with Suomen Wushu Kungfu Seura.

Assisting Jyri Sucksdorff is our own teacher student Arvo Jean-Michael Ärlig who has been training with Jyri at Suomen Wushu Kungfu Seura
