I like your stuff buddy... in case I haven't made that clear?
There are a number of styles of SILAT that have certain softer (kung-fu) styles influence.... I may have been exposed to that deliberate (almost slow-ish) style of checking and attachment deflection movement... I need more!
Thanks kindly as always KOTF...

Worked on filming some last night and plan on it after work today and maybe tomorrow morning too.
Aside from a little Wing Chun and it's offshoots (wing tsun, etc) and people like Earl Montaigue, I don't think I've seen the applications for the Chinese martial arts explained in depth like this.
I appreciate your willingness to share your stuff like this. This gives me better perspective for the CMAs (most of what I'm used to seeing in the CMAs I pretty much readilly dismiss as impractical bunk or simply aesthetically pleasing coreography with little utility in a fight) but you seem to have worked your art to be REAL. That's important, man, and something most martial artists don't truly live up to.
I have Boar, stabbychick and TTe, for that ability. Most people have mentor, I have tormentors.
Fights aren't pretty that's for sure. Watch two animals fight, there's nothing pretty or graceful there, just violent and fluid.
And most importantly quick.

Plus...I really like the elbows from the interview position.
I'm glad I got that lesson early on. I was bouncing at the time and someone in class mentioned hand positions in those situations.
This was basically what we got. On drunks it works like a charm. You got 'em out the door before they know the hit the lot.
Works good on sober people too. You just got to pop them up side the head every few seconds to remind them whose, steering.

When the hell am I going to see some knife work?
I'll have to work up to that. I have to add more knife into my training and bring the wife up to par before I film anything like that.
Then there's the moral dilemma of putting that kind of thing out for anyone with a net connection.
We'll see.

I usually watch twice. Once to see what he's presenting and again to glean potential cutting mayhem.
