  1. Long Heavy Strokes - Here's Bradley demonstrating long heavy strokes. The heavy stick is one of our preferred weapons. Students learn how to move and make the weapon lighter.
  2. Sombrada - A pair of students demonstrate the long heavy strokes against each other in Sombrada, a drill in which one person goes and then the other. Because the heavy weapon is such a forceful weapon it takes a great deal of skill to manipulate it and keep from injuring your partner. It is certainly a weapon that must be respected at all times.
  3. Long Open Hand - Tuhan demonstrates these long strokes open hand with additional footwork.
  4. Long Open Hand attack - As Tuhan explains, while attacking Gura Rosie, the long open hand movements are difficult for an opponent to predict.
  5. Jay & Allen - Jay and Allen try the long open hand movements against each other, while Tuhan takes a moment to point out the finer points.
  6. Jay & Allen 2 - I think they've got the hang of it now
  7. PAWMA Bay Area Demo - Here Gura Michelle, Marirose and Rona with storyline voiceover by Barbara perform the Blind Princess story at the Pacific Association of Women Martial Artist's Bay Area Demonstration in April 2001. Gura Michelle plays the accompanying kulintang music. The song is called Sinayed, a Maguindanao song played during healing rituals. Outside of Kali, Gura Michelle takes kulintang lessons from Master Danangon Kalanduyan.
  8. Pusod Class - Marirose and Gura Michelle just doing a bit of basic numerado with some slow motion effects.

Here are some home movies of a few of the classes and demos we've done in the past.

Certainly it's no where near the experience of watching it live, but when you're sitting at your desk at work, what can you do?

 

Thanks to Bradley and Rosemary for providing many of these mpegs. Also to Rhett Pascual for taping the PAWMA demo and to Mike Price for transferring it online.
