Construction of a wooden dummy

Since proper training requires it to take a great deal of harsh punishment, our wooden dummy is built with enough strength to withstand many hard hits over its lifetime. For this reason it is securely built from hard wood. (as softer woods may crack, and dummies made from non-wood materials (such as plastic or PVC) will often break)

We take pride in building the wooden dummy by the traditional way - from one piece of wood to ensure its durability. 

The all important angles and ratios are adhered to, so you can be sure that you get the right response from the dummy when you apply your techniques.

There are many variations of the standard Wooden Dummy and the most popular is the classic Wing Chun dummy, which is essential in the study of the art of Wing Chun. A second type is the modified wooden dummy, which is a dummy with a head and neck - another variation is of Bruce Lee's design for his own personal jeet kune do wooden dummy, called the JKD Dummy, which, when combined with the Wing Chun option, gives a practitioner the best of both Wing Chun and Jeet Kune Do wooden dummy techniques. We also offer rotating JKD Wooden Dummy with head and neck that can be also adjusted to static mode.

Martial Arts styles like wing chun, jeet kune do, kung fu, karate, in fact all combat systems can benefit from the wooden dummy.
