双手刀 Shuangshou dao and Shaolin bostuff

Classical Chinese fencing differs from Western classical fencing in that Western modern fencing has developed primarily as dueling. While oriental fencing has retained the character of action on the battlefield, which means that your apponet will most often be armed with something different from you. As a rule, if you have a sword in your hands, then the opponent will most likely be armed with a shaft weapon, since in ancient China this type was the most common and most often used in the army and militia. All kinds of bladed weapons, like a swords or sabers, were the privilege of the guardsmen or commanders. Therefore, I explain to my students the meaning of movements through such a pair, this is a sword and a pole, and the next step is the adaptation of the technique for dueling fencing!
