Beskrivelse
Traditional European quarterstaff martial arts emphasizes the use of a quarterstaff, which is a long wooden staff that is typically between 6 and 9 feet in length. Utilizing both hands, the quarterstaff is employed for striking, thrusting, blocking, and grappling.
Throughout history, the quarterstaff has been a prevalent implement employed in Europe for both self-defense and combat, with particular prevalence during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Owing to its adaptability and efficacy, it was favored by both commoners and trained combatants.
Quarterstaff martial arts have been maintained and executed in contemporary society, either as an embodiment of historical European martial arts (HEMA) or as a component of stage combat training for the film and theater industries. Methods of training and techniques employed in quarterstaff martial arts can differ in accordance with particular historical sources or contemporary interpretations that are embraced.
