Dan Bong Hyung

Описание: This is part of a project I did, “46 @ 46”. To celebrate my 46th birthday, I filmed myself doing 46 forms while visiting Summit County, Colorado. The videos include open hand, weapons and Taiji forms. Austin is a sea level, so doing my forms at over 9,000 feet was a tremendous challenge!

A dan bong is a traditional Korean weapon. It is a short stick made of hard wood with a lanyard. It doesn’t look like much, but it can pack a wallop when used properly. I have often heard it referred to as a “bone breaker”. I learned this Hwarangdo dan bong form from Kwan Jang Nim Ken Corona.
