Tabimina Balintawak Demo Fma Gathering 2006

Okay, I have about 4 students here with me. But I would like to emphasize I would like to emphasize, that each one has a different body movement, they have individual differences. Because based on body structure, each one is unique, there's tall, there's small, big ones, bulky or whatever. Now my training here I train my student to explore, to feel his comfort zone when he moves. Take note, I would like to emphasize that this is an uneven terrain. That's why we have to simulate, what is a real fight. Take note I would like to emphasize again that the fight here, the distance is so close It's holistic, and it's context, there's no specific target. Just react and sense me. You've got to sense me. Look at his face, his eyes. It's always looking at my face. And as much as possible, his balance is not distorted, maintain that balance. Because the bottomline of my training is survival. How can he survive, based on the attacks of a skilled fighter. I would like to emphasize again, that the contact here is controlled. Now, before he was just defending, but now he's starting to attack, so i have to defend and counter back. That's it. He's attacking now. He has to be vigilant in order to survive. I am his stimulus. We don't have amarra. I would like to emphasize, no fancy movements, no twirling movements. Every attack is direct. Okay, and like I said earlier, it's holistic. Later on, we'll do some bare hands. My interpretation based on the stick. Audience: I would like to see that bare hands, I don't know much about the stick. Okay, take note the distance here, (After the disarm) That was a strike (butting) under, I just controlled it. That is the trademark of Tabimina Balintawak, which I got it from Anciong Bacon.
