There is only one thing more dangerous than a monkey — a monkey with a staff! The Monkey Staff is a variation of the Wushu Monkey Style, where the performer uses a stick in a playful, yet combative way. Other popular monkey style variations include Drunken Monkey and Aggressive Monkey.
Instructions: Wushu Monkey Staff
Description: Wushu Monkey Staff
Use a strong staff that is slightly longer than your height. The stick is used for fighting, climbing, jumping from, and playing around with.
The monkey sometimes leaves the staff on the ground to perform freehand monkey-style techniques.
The staff used in the Monkey Staff style is usually a strong metal pipe, not a wooden stick. That’s because a wooden stick might break when you climb or jump on it. However, small children sometimes use wooden sticks because they are light enough.
Trainer Advice: Wushu Monkey Staff
Learn basic staff and monkey style first. Ditang techniques can also be helpful.
