Shaolin Academy Weaponry Style Forms

On this page...

You find all recorded Traditional Chinese Weaponry Style Forms the Shaolin Academy teaches and practices. Staff and Sword styles are the most prolific but there is also Pole Arms, Short Blades and 'Other'.

Staff

The staff is not really a weapon but a stick used as a tool when traveling. Before we had vehicles, people walked most everywhere unless they were rich or a soldier and had a horse. So, you carried only essentials, items that had many uses. As commoners with weapons were suspicious, walking staffs were acceptable and had many uses like: walking stick, fishing pole, probing the depth of water, knocking down fruit off trees, walking up hill, creating a shelter, to dry cloths after bathing in a river, carrying two water buckets or loads, ex cetera.

Swords, Sharp Short Weapons

A sharp weapon was possibly most popular as a tool of war before hot weapons. Even when a spear and bow became the decider in armed warfare, no soldier or warrior could be without a short bladed weapon for close quarter combat.

Pole Arms, Sharp Long Weapons

Long bladed weapons, pole arms, like the spear and pike, were essential in warfare and often a good pole arm division made all the difference. Even today we see ceremonial guards with pole arms like pikes, halberds, spontoon (European), spears, Ge (Chinese Pole arm), Naginata (Japanese), Barcha (India), Assegai (Africa), Maiden Spear (Amazon, not the shop) and the like.

Short Bladed Weapons, Concealed, Shot and Thrown, and Utensils

A knife is the most common among this weapon group but it comes in thousands of shapes. Small poisonous assassin knives, throwing knives, kitchen knives, hunting knives, butterfly knives western (those that collapse in to the handle), butterfly knives (Chinese, used for tenderizing and cutting), machete, folding, Kukuri, Hawksbill, Shaffer, boning, scaling, and many other are those that still prevail as weapons today. Some more unusual sharp weapons are the Chinese Character Knives, metal decorations made to look like a Chinese character but with a handle and sharp edge. They were a way to conceal a weapon in the open in days where house invasions were as popular as they are today in some parts of the world. But also everyday items like the Chinese bench or Jacky Chan's ladder, a chair, short stick or anything really.
