coltmakai Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 I want to know how to fight well with the double sticks. There is no escrima school within my area. Can anyone suggest a good book or video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pacificshore Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Although there is no subsitute for actual instruction in any M.A., I would suggest getting a copy of Remy Presas's book on Modern Arnis. Also some good reading would be Cabales Serrada Eskrima by Mark Wiley(Tuttle Publication). As far as training videos, there are some by the Dog Brothers(Panther Series), or Unique video series featuring Edgar Sulite(now deceased), and one of the instructor's to the Dog Brothers guys. If nothing else it'll give you a better insight to the world of Eskrima. Keep in mind that there are many different forms of Filipino stick fighting. Some teach close range, middle range, and long range. Hope this was of some help. Good luck!! Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoto Tiger Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Good advice PacificShore. I just picked up Remy Presas book "Modern Arnis" and it has helped no end. Apparently he has videos too about 6 I think but I have been told they are very expensive. The best price mentioned so far is £40 each tape. If anyone knows a cheaper supplier I would be delighted to hear from you! Melanie---------------Be nice if I get this right one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoto Tiger Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 Hiya I think Remy passed away in the last couple of years and General Choi, founder of TKD passed away in the last month or so.

bustr Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 Coltmakai Check out the site below. There is a list of schools. One is in Jackson. The other in Tupelo. If they're too far away then they may be able to find you a backyard school somewhere. If that doesn't work out then Id recommend going to a weekend seminar even if it requires some travelling. http://www.hardcorejkd.com/jkd/academy/instructors.php Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
