Martial arts training devices and methods

摘要

A training system enables improved training outcomes and reduced trainer injuries. An exemplary system includes a handle, a striking target, and a flexible linkage coupling the handle and target. The system may be swung to provide an offensive or defensive target for a trainee. Because the trainee strikes the striking target rather than an item held in the hand of a trainer, impact to the body of the trainer is reduced and/or eliminated.
