Stick Fighting
to get it clear up front:
Stick Fighting (AMA): sparring done with short sticks allowing punching, kicking, joint locking, throwing and grappling.
basically, like the DB's but it will be a long time, if ever, that I let it go to full contact in my school...too much liability. But, I think it can be done w/ enough protective gear to go hard enough for it to be realistic training.
as students get better, mainly in being able to control the action so no major injuries are incured, we add staves, training knives and swords.
anyone else doing anything like this?
"George never did wake up. And, even all that talking didn't make death any easier...at least not for us. Maybe, in the end, all you can really hope for is that your last thought is a nice one...even if it's just about the taste of a nice cold beer."
"If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"
"Is enlightenment even possible? Or, did I drive by it like a missed exit?"
It's simpler than you think.
I could be completely wrong"
