The Nangun is a variation of the application of the "northern Chinese staff", which is featured in contemporary wushu exercises and forms.[1] It is based on staff techniques coming from Southern Chinese martial arts.[2] Its movements stress hitting, in contrast to the cutting and swinging techniques of the northern staff.
