Hall of Arms

The use of weapons is an integral part of the Lao Long Dao program as well as of the Vietnamese tradition and are considered as an extension of our body.

All weapons have their own energy, a sort of soul that can be felt as soon as it comes into contact with it, and it is necessary to find the right harmony with this energy, the right way to learn not how to handle but how to live the weapon.
