witik or kadlit - short snapping, retracting strike.

It is required to start with Rattan sticks actually, but if you do not have, then start with sticks that is 1 inch wide, 27 inch in length. Start with 1 stick at first then progress yourself with 2 stick once you are comfortable using 1 stick in each side of your arms. So in 1 stick, make progress in your desired arm, wether the left arm or right arm, it doesn’t matter, what matters is that if you choose 1 and master with that desired arm, then move to the other arm you weren’t desired. After mastering your strikings and buikding uo calluses from both of your hands from both arms, you start pregressing to double stick, since you mastered 1 stick from both arms, I am pretty sure you’ll be able to understand how double stick works. You’ll progress yourself to using a knife then empty-handed if you master stick fighting. All foundation that you learned from thise sticks will corroborate from what you understand strikings and combos from your experince of your skill set.
