Blade13 Posted April 22, 2002 Posted April 22, 2002 I got invited to go to a Filipino martial arts camp in June by the people who put on a tournament I competed in last October. They said that it will involve single stick, double stick, knife fighting, two circle fighting, unarmed combat, etc. Anybody got some tips on what I should do to get ready? Thanx. _________________ *To HELL with opportunity!

Bon Posted April 22, 2002 Posted April 22, 2002 Stick fighting is cool.. well worth learning I reckon. It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
ZR440 Posted April 23, 2002 Posted April 23, 2002 Hey Blade, Let me know if you observe anyone that practices Kuntaw. I am thinking of cross training with that style if I can find the time, but I'd like an outside opinion on how they compare with other PMA before I commit myself (to another style, that is). It's happy hour somewhere in the world.
Blade13 Posted April 25, 2002 Author Posted April 25, 2002 Alrighty. This is what the invitation says... LEARN: -Single Stick -Double Stick -Empty Hand -Knife -Dumog(grappling) -Flow Drills Then on the other side of the invitation it says.... *Modern Arnis *Mano Y Daga Hope some of that helped. *shrugs* lookin forward to any advice. And Yoda, I immediately thought of you when I got the invitation, lol. So I got on the forums and posted as soon as possible. Thanks.
ZR440 Posted April 29, 2002 Posted April 29, 2002 Hey Blade, Here's a web site of the Kuntaw class offered at a college near me. I posted this once before, but you might not have seen it. Check out the instructors personal web site at the top of the page by clicking on his name. Who knows, he might be there at the camp you are going to. http://www.nmc.edu/~smith7/welcome.htm It's happy hour somewhere in the world.
