Considering your large size and experience as a Marine, I would imagine you really only have one or two things that are likely benifited readily by training. You already mentioned the most obvious...

Refresh my memory... why are those two exclusive?

So, rename it to "boxing-do" and it can be a martial art?

It does? So a culinary art is about more than cooking? And a performing art is...

An excellent article, and one I would love to place on my website (with proper accreditaion of course). It realy reenforces to me the wisdom of the precepts I have been training under (to fight under...

My early draft on this is at "http://www.clearsilat.com/silat/Articles/MultipleAttackers.htm".

Figure I'll cite rather than cut'n'paste an overly long post.

So then we are not discussing "thighs parallel to floor" stances? How high then?

I also agree that width makes a difference, and weather te butt is tucked makes a differrence. The only thing I...

Yep, that sounds about right. My weaponliess techniques most likely to cause death are probibly the "plant head on pavement" and "drop knee on neck" variety.


"So that they can use it to kill...

Thanks, I like your use of fonts and colors better than mine :) If you are intersted in "trading notes" some time (I'm always looking at what other people do, and always eager to talk about what I...

Better to chime in late than never? I'm a silat practitioner.

You have a large variety of manners in which to use one are to defend against another; and there are so many variables as to make anthing shy of some video rather lacking. Some basics related to your...

Well, welcome to Florida; Yes, I enjoy blade work (I must being in both Silat and a sword-fighting group). Ever visit Tampa?

It looks more like you are interested in promoting. There's nothing wrong with promoting; it's the appearance that you would do it under a false pretense "hey, I just came down to florida..."

The 4 vs 1 thread was one guy attacking 4 people, not defending against 4 attackers.

What's with all the liberal bashing? Should use phrases like "****phobic, xenophobic, wrong minded neolitich conservitives"?

Some liberals like guns you know. "right to do what you want" is...

I was emailed and asked to relay this...

Rolling, if you are looking for a video, I'd probibly recommend ours (suprise there huh?) drop me an email about it if you want information.

I thought...

Hey :)

Yes, I've heard of Bob Orlando. I do not personally have any of his material, and have never interacted with the man. So let me be as helpful as I can manage and point you at some other...

Yes, they are farming implaments (that probibly exist in many Asian countries). When the Japanese outlawed weapons for Okinawans, they started coming up with improvised weapons training including...

And how does one determine if his friends are in the crowd, or around the corner? How does one know if he's got a knife he's going to pull when you clinch?

I know my answer (I assume he is armed...

I would argue that running is preference to fighting weather you are outnumbered or not. Besides, how did you decide you were not outnumbered in teh first place?

#2 (turning sideways) is common...

It's called a "rear naked choke" (at leas in the NHB / wrestling / BJJ circles). The position of the trachia in the elbow and the closing of the wind-pipe are really secondary to cahging the apparent...

Agreed, putting yourself in the position to have a fight, with the intent of having one, is assault (aggrivated assault with a weapon).

The case study would be the guy who knew his neighbor would...

Conversely, I have no friends and no family memebrs who have been shot. And in fact, I know of only one who has pulled his firearm when the opportunity arose (the others considered it unneccessairy)....

Can and do...

Thanks for the charicterization. I'm liberal and quite pro-firearm.

Good.

Right, when only one has a gun it's not called a fight, it's called a murder. What so much better...

That would depend on what he did.

And why do you feel those would somehow be easier? Why do you believe that he cannot be uprooted but can be injured by striking?

You want to take someone...

Why make yourself choose? Our program includes Silat and Niejia. :)

Five-days into not posting, the same could have been accomplished by letting the thread die. For that matter, the boards PM systems could have been used to send that info.

Also, I am not aware...
