Just a general comment about the format of your guy's drills. Many drills start with an opponent's punch, you then react to it by a counter punch or throw. Sometime your opponent's punch will hold in the air too long and won't look good.
IMO, the drills will look more real if you initiate the attack and then when your opponent reacts to it, you fininsh with a punch or throw. This way, since you don't need your opponent to do anything but to block your punch or to step back from your kick, you will have 100% control in your drill training.
Different kind of mind set such as "defensive - react to your opponent" and "offensive - force your opponent to react" will develop different type of fighters. A lion or tiger will never wait for their prey to do anything. They just attack whenever they think that they are ready. Trying to eat your opponent alive will be a good spirit to promote in TCMA.
Here is a good example to show what I'm talking about. You look for your contact points instead of your opponent gives you those contact points that you need.

I don't believe in "demos" myself.
I think the best highlights of any school are those that have the following:
Sparring
equipment work
strength and conditioning work
Athletic Semi-clad women
Beyond that, most clips show compliant demos that anyone with half a brain and some experience knows wouldn't work when you needed them to.
But hey, I've seen a lot worse.

I see your point but that wouldnt be considered self defense? i always tell my students to allow your opponet to attack first and then attack back unstopping until thier are rendered. this is the gentlemen thing to do.
gino , thank you they are coming along some have only been with me for a few years.
sanjuro,
yeah it was not realy a demo, my student recorded a class on his phone and edited it up as you can see there is strength training, rocking pushups, and drills in there.
so it was a live class, just when through he editing so it looks like a promo but it really wasnt. whats mising the explination and the practice for 2 hours... thanks for your comment though. all is welcome.
no skanty clad women though......... you were not the editor LOL

Nice clip, ED! Your class looks like a good balance and everyone is learning and enjoying themselves. That's what it's all about.
