I've been working on a tactical walking stick/cane self-defense class for the Fall. It was supposed to be based on the Cold Steel Walkabout Stick, but they are out of stock. The brand is exceptional and I do want to stay with them. There are other sticks available. The Dragon Walking Stick is much heavier [I own one] and would not be a good beginner training weapon. I'm considering the Kali Stick for training purposes and then a student could choose the tactical walking stick of there choice - pictured.

The End Of Hubud Lubud Week which entails true CQC at its scientific best! Covered areas of Hubud that I have exclusively created such as: Same side switching and continuous Hubud Lubud to the same side. What does this all mean?? Join the school and find out. Never too late to get started on your warrior journey.

Last night's focus was on: 1. Form: combining a Sero with a Florette. 2. Application of a Sero cutting through [not stopping!] & not withdrawing. Seems 'easy' but very difficult. 3. Heaven 6. 4. The exact, precision intricacies of a Doble Baston Counter-Strike combo. Intense and...fun!

Finished our first week of Knife/Blade Training. Dividing the four main ARNIS cornerstones into weekly sessions has proven to be extremely successful. This will definitely be the laid out curriculum for the unforeseen future.

I have changed the school curriculum into each month divided by the four specific, cornerstones of BDSC ARNIS:
1. Suntukan - ‘Dirty Boxing’
2. Baston – Sinawali & Sumbrada
3. Hubud Lubud
4. CQC Knife Training
Each week we will ‘drill down’ for four hours on each of these training modules. This change will allow the student to immerse themselves in the specific concepts & skill lessons being taught. This will alleviate the stress of hurrying through the training with the former split-type classes.
