Given my well know love of all things sharp and pointy, how could I resist a martial arts class offering tuition in amongst other weapons katana, sai, bo stick and nunchaku. Cowabunga dude!
Last night was the first session, and I went with Rachel so I had a suitable partner to crush, maim and strangle as required. The sensei gave us a quick taster of several techniques for bo, yawara (small sticks), tonfa (like police batons) and most excellently of all proper nunchakus! Ok, so they were foam covered, plastic ones but at least I didn't hit myself in the head with them. Much.
Excellent fun all round, and I think I'll be going again ... :-)
