My parents passed away at a young age and are resting in Glenalina (the Belfast Cemetery). One thing they always drilled into me was “if you are going to do something, do it to the best of your ability “. We may not always get things right but we always try to. If you are considering joining one of our 2 Irish Stick Classrooms, don’t take our word for it on value and quality of content…some kind words from current class members.

Good Morning All! Here is a partial peek into the Intro Class. Lots of topics / folders with more info in the folders. We worked for a concentrated 2 months (and still adding content) to build our Classrooms. Once you enter a classroom you stay and maintain access to the content. No scheduling, all on your time and at YOUR pace. Ideally what do you need? A stick (or dowel or broom handle!) approx. 34-40” ☘️ The Intro to Intermediate has even more content! Join us!

Our Intro to Irish Stick has 46 Videos with more added every couple of weeks. Instruction, drills, homework, context. Over 2 months of content (with more added as we go) created specifically for this course and SKOOL. Our Intro to Intermediate has much, much more content taking you even further down the walking path. Once registered for a Classroom, you have ongoing access to this material at a one-time cost! Hope to see more of you in the Classrooms!

I am really enjoying the stick punch guard.. I think it will be great for transitioning into grappling. The hands feel a bit exposed but I think that sparring will help me fix that, but at mid to close range It seems like it will be really effective!! Has anyone sparred using it against a fast style like kali or single stick(hema) and do you have any tips on not getting my hands mashed.

Why learn Irish Stick Fighting? There might be more positive reasons than you think... - something unique with a practical tool that is multi-purpose - Training tool is easily (and of course legally) transportable. - Can be elevated to combat sparring with a partner wearing protective gear to show where weaknesses and failures in training appear. - Not a ton of space required although nothing beats being out in nature with a training stick. - Solo work - mobility benefits. Tells you about how your body wants to and doesn't want to move :) - Low to high energy exercise. - As a last resort - possible self defence using a force multiplier. - Like most martial arts, gets your brain going on what you can do and how to put things together. - Stick can cost nothing if harvested or improvised...up to a classic heirloom Shillelagh (Blackthorn or Oak).
