I am a retired Australian Cane Master who was awarded his Black Belt and subsequent CaneMaster ranking from Grand Master Mark Shuey of the original Cane Masters in the USA. 

Although retired from public teaching, I still enjoy practicing with my cane collection for health and fitness.

My cane collection began in 2003 with some excellent canes from the original Cane Masters in the USA and I still stock some canes and cane accessories for sale, but my selection is now limited.

​

The cane is an excellent tool for Exercise, Wellness, Rehabilitation, and may be of assistance in a self defense situation if physical confrontation is unavoidable.  The cane helps with not only PHYSICAL health but also with MENTAL Health. It may even provide a SPIRITUAL link into history by conjuring up images of Biblical characters, Egyptian Pharaohs, African Zulus, Asian Monks, Royalty, and the elegance of a bygone Victorian era where people wore their canes as a fashion accessory.

​

The cane be used in:

• Stretching exercises which may help relax tight muscles and prevent cramping and stiffness

• Isometric exercises which may help to maintain strength over a full range of motion

• Isotonic resistance type exercises which may help shape muscles, increase metabolic rate and improve strength

• Cane Katas which may help to increase aerobic endurance 

• Simple ambulation, which is fun and also good exercise for any age group

​

So consider starting a cane collection by acquiring and training with a cane, it will be your perfect companion throughout your entire life.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Before starting any exercise program consult your doctor or other health care professional to ensure the activities are suitable for you.
