It teaches the user to keep the arms chambered, the body and horse straight and supportive, the stance spaced properly and the footwork strong yet swift. Helps keep the hands drawn with the elbows in while executing a hand maneuvers. Use of the rattan ring teaches the use of the power that comes up from beneath the elbows, and teaches the practitioner to fight when there is a constant force on the bridges such as occurs in actual combat. Use of the bamboo/rattan ring will build relaxed power, instill proper fighting posture, and permit the proper execution of speed and Jing (power). It is also very effective at teaching the skill of feeling or sensitivity, an essential part of Chi Sao. Smaller rings are for more close in, elbows in training which relates most to close in fighting and grappling.
