6 Dragons Kung Fu’s Poles training demo
Combat training (intermediate level)
An example of execution of Poles exercise
In this video, we show a practical example of the Poles practice (in the particular case, Master Kongling performs the intermediate version of the exercise against 8 door’s jambs).
This training is one of the fundamental technical exercises of 6 Dragons Kung Fu (read /// Subscribe (it's free!) or Login to see this content ///) and it promotes: spatial intelligence, coordination, precision, quick reasoning, conditioning, flow quality and much more.
A note by Master Kongling – The method of execution demonstrated in the video (speed, moves, level of impact, etc.) is not for beginners but the type of practice is very simple and accessible to everyone.
Notes
- This is one of the fundamental 6 Dragons Kung Fu practices (read Basic tools: the pole)

- Let your body flow: try to be naturally unpredictable
- Learn when to push, lean, hit, slide…
- Learn to manage even what you don’t see
- Imagine to face real opponents
- Avoid excessive symmetries / repetitions
- Learn to draw a mental map of the scenario

- Combine conditioning, precision and strength dosage
- Alternate between slow and fast flow but avoid the intermediate one
- Work on building an unconsciously broken pace
