Take your Indian Clubs for a Walk 2

Sunday Morning Walk

Take your Indian Clubs for a Walk 2. Today I’m walking in the park again on Sunday morning, it’s a beautiful day and the sun has just risen over the horizon, the light is amazing. I’m walking with my Indian Clubs which I’m carrying in my backpack.

Parallel and Windmill Variations

Take your Indian Clubs for a Walk 2. My plan for today is to work on parallel and windmill swings and their variations. So I am going to stop off at various points of my walk through the park and have a few swings.

Inspiration from an Old Leaning Burnt Out Tree

There is a huge, very old burnt out tree on my walk. It must have been majestic in its heyday with a massive canopy. I love the way the trunk leans over, which has always made me think of Parallel and Windmill swings. It is still very beautiful in its textures and shape.

Lightweight Backpack

Take your Indian Clubs for a Walk 2. So I came across an old tree stump and I thought I would use it as a tabletop to show you how I carry my clubs. I use a lightweight nylon backpack. To prevent the clubs from marking and knocking into each other during my walk, I put each club into a woollen sock, the really thick ones are best.

Woollen Socks

The woollen socks do a great job, and a very easy to use, you pull them on for transportation and pull them off when you want to use your Indian Clubs. This is the same method I use when I travel during my Indian Clubs World Tours, the only differences that I pack them into a suitcase.

You Can Train Away From Home

Travelling with Indian Clubs is a great idea because you can train and practise whilst you’re away from home. I would not recommend trying to take Indian Clubs onto a plane as hand luggage, as at the end of the day they are a weapon. They are best packed into your suitcase, carefully wrapped in a wool sock, and packed tightly with the rest of your belongings.

      Hi Mark, Glad you enjoyed the video, you were one of the first people to start traveling with your clubs and shena, following our meeting in Dallas. Had a lady contact me to say she was going to the beach with her clubs after seeing the video.
