I just want to say to you, your channel is superb, YOU are superb, and you come across as a brilliant guy that a person would just love to know, you really do. 👍🇬🇧 god bless America from your little brother Great Britain! And thanks for fighting so well with us in two world wars. My grandfather was in ww1 and my father landed on sword beach on D day, fought for Caen, battle of Normandy, Nijmegen bridge in Holland, the northern shoulder of the battle of the bulge, down into Germany and liberated Belsen, then went to the river Elbe to stop the Russians from crossing. So proud of him. We lost him New Year’s Day 2013 age 92. My hero and best friend. The greatest generation!
👍🇺🇸🇬🇧

Oh wow! Thanks for this. I’m gonna get out my bo staff. My son wanted to learn this also so we will do this along with you. Thanks so much for posting this. Well appreciated.

Hi Matt, with my trigger finger surgery healing progressing well, i began alternating practice with the 3/4 inch jo, to the heavier 11/8 inch 5 ft. heavier staff. I put the rubber caps back on to protect the staff, from any damage that might occur when it gets dropped, more than i would like to admit. The challenges that you promote in your classes, help remind me that: "We don't become stronger in our strengths, but in overcoming our weaknesses." God bless and thank you Mike. Doug.

Greetings from India 🇮🇳 .
Sir please make a complete series of striking and defence of bo staff... From beginner to advance level ... No spinning and all . To the point attack and defence.

I’m 51 and in Scotland WE did that nuclear attack drill at primary school in 1981! It was terrifying for us! Now they scare kids in school by telling them the world’s going to end unless they recycle their waste! At least OUR FEAR WAS A REAL POSSIBILITY. 🇬🇧👍

Thanks again. The wrist rolls still don't work for me, but I haven't given up.

Right now, my bo training has been put on hold because my garage is blocked by a snow drift. I've had to trade my bo for a shovel. With my health problems, I can't shovel for more than about five or ten minutes at a time. I still just do what I can; quit when I must; and hope for the best. I had moved my car out of the garage when it started getting bad, so I can get around as needed. I still hope that I can clear the garage enough to use it for another week or two. Beyond that, the garage will be a lost cause until May.

Great job Matt.
I am going to try this. Need to get my upper body strength. Can you do the same with the jo staff.
Good luck with your new place.

Thank you again Matt for another great video, very comprehensive for a short training session.
Best of luck to you on your new school, what city are you located in out of curiosity..?

I had to do the desk thing... and later we did the hall way thing for tornados. Now children have to do that lock the door and hide from armed shooters. often bad parents or another student who turned bad instantly it would seem.

Sorry Matt. I was talking to my son Mike when i was texting. Can multi text worth a darn. LOL!
