[@AdobeCADman]

Thank you for clearly demonstrating the basic two-stick movements at different angles.👍

[@aptcmpasion]

one of he best 'basics' i've ever seen; really simple, but really thorough!

[@MrTikene]

Nice. Thanks for spreading the arts. Your contributions are appreciated.

[@parrycheck]

Very clean presentation! Thank you for sharing, good ways to hammer basics are vital.

[@zombieland6484]

Good Job on your presentation. I enjoyed the training. My son and I are picking this up for the first time. This is really helpful. Thanks bro

[@firefox2716]

Your a true master ! never seen anyone in my 55 yr life twirl the double sticks as proficient like you just performed ! You were very excellent in describing the true techniques of double sticks...enjoyable...Have a great day !

[@CJScratch]

to be honest the way he's twirling the sticks is the worst possible way to do so .... he opens his hands and spreads his fingers . the moment someone hits his sticks they would go flying across the room he also has no control over the stick .you should never open your hands and loosen up your grip you will lose your weapon . the proper way to twirl your sticks is rotating your wrist while keeping a firm grip.

[@carlgoodrum9505]

[@saidmughery357]

[@Crimi-forensi_mind254]

[@gobagamy5]

waoooow nice work

[@franciscosamaniego729]

Thank you for instruction I'm a student I like very much this art this classes will help many students godbless you

[@r.p.tsmolaka5737]

at 2:02, insist on wrist blow

[@r.p.tsmolaka5737]

I mean, just before contact the stick is moved by your wrist blow; your elbow should not move any longer.

[@r.p.tsmolaka5737]

1:49, We twist our hips to avoid knee pain later on...

[@r.p.tsmolaka5737]

2:21, very important: twisting the wrist and lowering the stick (but the movement of the stick is a circle!)

[@goldedrago]

what are those things called at the end of his pants and around his ankles sorta? just like, boxing glove wrappings or something?

[@stormdetonation85]

***** Not sure where that comment went but in reply to -
"im studying a system called Filipino Fighting Arts. thats pretty interresting! and do u really study it that way, i mean the basics, open hand grip etc, stick proportions etc?"
The techniques are different - 12 basic strikes (no thrusting strikes) rather than 14 with different strikes for the angles. We're also taught never to spin the stick open hand as it's a really easy way to end up disarmed. Stick proportions-wise we use 32" sticks so fan strikes are out of the window as the sticks are too heavy. Footwork's different too - none of the pivoting on the ball of the foot (personally I think it weakens the attacking stance and opens you up to some potentially nasty counter strikes, namely a good swift kick to the side of the knee joint) but the body mechanics are the same - hip motion to increase striking power. There's also little to no sport side to the system
Also it's taught Filipino style - none of the formality of Japanese martial arts! It's really interesting seeing how many different styles of escrima there are out there

[@rodneycoulman1996]

stormdetonation85 I have trained in FMA for a decade now, in that time I trained under GM Greg Henderson. I have also travelled to the Philippines several times to train with many Grand Masters. Every style is different, from the footwork, the striking patterns, ect ect. Personally, I train with many different size and weight canes, everyone In my club does, there are NO regulation sizes. We only have 7 basic strikes (research quadrant theory), it is simplified for combatives. We too, never spin the canes like that, as you said, its very bad form and will easily disarm.
Happy training =)

[@vlastimilsvub5441]

Nice video, althoug i disagree that taking power from the hip should be prefered option

[@williambreen4290]

I am curious to know is this stickwork from the American Kenpo system or Kali escrima?

[@jefffox8665]

I have to say, with no vestment in either Ninjutsu or FMA, the 6 count drill I see being taught here looks very much like a Heaven six drill commonly taught in any FMA styles,

[@kevincopeland2316]

that is not the Heaven six count, but the standard six count or what some systems call a split six count drill. A Heaven six is all high strikes to the head. A right high forehand slash, left backhand high slash, & right backhand high slash off the right side then repeat the pattern off your left side. That's what Heaven six is!

[@tuannguyen6141]

good

[@peterpinel5251]

Hi sir do you have these drills on CD for sale?

[@dipakchaudhari8398]

IT WILL REALLY HELP ME............ MERCI BEAUCOUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@PhuongHa-nn5sj]

I VERY LIKE

[@ianchristianbongalos8384]

where do you teach arnis?

[@fahadksaboy]

cool

[@MrEdium]

is this part of Hanbojiutsu {3 ft stick}
or is this kali. It look like kali.

[@jaimeloor7068]

Exselente

[@Sithikus]

It doesn't matter whether it looks pretty weather looks fancy, the most effective techniques you'll never see coming.. Speaking from personal experience, my FMA isn't pretty, its pretty effective. You must remember this is a fighting system spanning a thousand years of combat.

[@PhantomFlame97]

Whats the Technical name for these? They can't be just 'Sticks'

[@NaihanchinKempo]

he trained the actors in GymKata be nice ..love Arobic ninjitsu from the 80s its so fun lol

[@thomasjensen4426]

these wrist whip are so fast I can not see how to do them. As I am a (very much) beginner. Please slow it sown or get an animated example in slow motion ????

[@peterpinel5251]

How can I purchase a copy?

[@godspark6558]

Wish the double Arco was slower.

[@revshifu]

Is the stick spinning or the wrist only?

[@balkamt.sangma6024]

👍👍👌👌

[@rayanargent7642]

👍

[@nathanieldizon2150]

[@fernandotorreslopez3031]

So it's all in the wrist. ?

[@manqobamichael7680]

yaaa

[@IAM-fd9lk]

What do you call your system??

[@pretoartistamarcial7192]

Bom

[@deezy526]

im going to be like nightwing one day

[@nakanaks32]

eskrima from the philippine martial arts

[@waynekimpel8172]

In the beginning

[@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES.]

Nice tutorial, but is that a proper way to spin the eskrima? I've always heard that, while engaged in combat, you should NEVER take your fingers off the sticks - it looks like you release them during the spin.

[@joshuasim8019]

In Kali, one mustn't. In some styles of Arnis, it's permissible

[@joebotz1243]

Truth

[@irob160614]

Nightwing?

[@waynekimpel8172]

Would be nice to see some moves in slow motion

[@fullbawks8590]

Slow down the play back speed

[@TripBtv]

Sinawali??

[@keithlittlebury2986]

It means 'weaving' apparently

[@iShieldBoy]

i found a broken mop stick in my store so i decided to learn martial arts with it

[@keithlittlebury2986]

Good use of resources 👍

[@abdulazizawol2635]

ohhhh amizig

[@jackalston4516]

What are the sticks made of ??

[@p.h.lheart7382]

The Young Witcher Rattan..?

[@Sithikus]

90% of what people teach these days involving short sticks and blades is derived from FMA. Remember though, those who post at to the validity of these drills: they're drills designed to promote flexibility and fluidity of motion. Don't read too deeply into a drill beyond said drill.

[@mdtushar17]

how feet this Stick length ?

[@keithlittlebury2986]

26 inches I believe

[@naffolin]

how long is a stick?

[@zeroa6]

One question: ¿do exist an traditional Japanese dual stick style?. I always see Skrima/kali out there.
Thanks!

[@xXlolXx267]

is stick fighting like this also in kung fu?

[@KHMu51C5]

+Gromx in traditional Kung Fu, those short sticks are not used. There are however, different weapons such as the spear or the three-section staff. There are some Kung Fu styles, where even sword fighting is practiced.

[@zeroa6]

One question: ¿do exist an traditional Japanese dual stick style?. I always see Skrima/kali out there.
Thanks!

[@theohiograssmen]

lame comments, its just a training drill to build muscle memory. stop complaining!

[@AJGagliardo]

0:22 "at the same time knowing where to put your stick" : if you know what I mean: LOL sorry too much memes lately :P

[@temachii]

Isn't this Arnis? .-.

[@mattmejia]

Denmark depends on the art your practicing

[@zeroa6]

One question: ¿do exist an traditional Japanese dual stick style?. I always see Skrima/kali out there.
Thanks!

zeroa6...
I'll point you to your question, Actually! only in the Philippines it comes from traditional Skrima / Kali martial arts. That's why it's copied in different countries, especially in america, as a business of the Filipino arnis masters... *PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO MARTIAL ARTS*

[@icetea7130]

That is arnis ancient filipino marshal arts

[@MichaelNTL]

What like jump out from the shadows and be stabbed by a katana? XD

[@andeandeande5053]

am i the only one who think he is doing those things too fast for us to learn?

[@rodellaparejo2]

well this isn't basic stuff… you need to practice the basics before getting this down

[@andeandeande5053]

where is them?

[@carlosmaldonado7936]

You can change the playback speed of the video to slower speed. Click on the settings symbol.

[@bulbakip6380]

Really? his pants bother you all that much?

[@guloguloguy]

Why don't you SLOW IT DOWN, and actually show the detailed view as to how to properly handle these weapons?!...

[@IAM-fd9lk]

Reverse engineering 😂
