Lok Dim Boon Gwan (六點半棍), the Six and a Half Point Pole. The final form in the Chu Shong Tin lineage of Wing Chun. The Long Pole is a common link among all southern Kung Fu systems, yet very few dedicate much time to this apparatus beyond learning a few basic exercises.Why study this large and unwieldy weapon? How can it improve your understanding of Wing Chun as a whole and inform your fighting ability?
Gary King has devoted many years into not only training, but developing the skills of the Long Pole. His seminars each year at the Australian Wing Chun Federation’s (AWCF) national conference have cemented him as one of the leading authorities on this weapon, with a thorough integration of the skills into Wing Chun as a whole.
Join us for two exclusive seminars exploring Lok Dim Boon Gwan and how it will enhance your Wing Chun irrespective of your level of experience in the art.
1st Workshop: Saturday 16th of August, 12:30 to 14:00
2nd Workshop: Sunday 17th of August, 10:30 to 12:00
