Closing the Distance

Lok Dim Boon Kwan (6 1/2 Pole or Dragon Pole Form) Drills

The 6 1/2 refers to the amount of Major Strikes/ Blocks techniques in the Pole Form. The tip is used to devastating effect and, with accuracy and focus, it is a formidable weapon. The pole develops tremendous forearm and wrist strength. As such it benefits the punching power and most basic hand techniques. If one can use the power explosively the benefit to general short distance power in empty hand combat is maximized.
