Inside Gunting

Just something I extrapolated from level one of Marc Halleck's Panantukan Silat series. A demo for prospective clients.

There are some people who I trained with , with whom I would never put a palm to absorb a hit...

A catch isn't a block, I can see how with our relaxed demo attitude it could seem that way. It's to be used in combination with head movement and footwork, similar to a parry. It's meant to check the hand or arm to help you determine range.

U cant apply that in real fight... theres alot of how's.. but in real fight, u wont know what ur opponent gona delivery to you.. i hate this kind of 80's style of teaching..

[gx12]

If you've actually put time in training the skill then you should be able to pull it off in a real fight. Correct, you can't know what an attacker will throw, so does that mean training for the street is impossible? Of course not. After you get a handle on a technique you train in an athletic manner and in scenarios.

The inside gunting works well against a haymaker, which by it's very nature is telegraphed and with training you should see it coming.

[gx12]

Do you call it 80's training because it's off the one-two? That's just skill development, not scenario training.

Filipino?! im pretty sure gunting is Malaysian/indonesian word.. T_T

[hagler7]

i think if you drill drill and drill some more it will work and dont forget fma is a tried and tested system that was used in jungle warefare in ww2

[Lyrisius]

@sdurgefafd Well it does mean scissors in Tagalog too

[1xirsx1]

Hey this is a real technique, you see fighters use this all the time in real fights. Oh wait, it's bullshit and no one does this in a real fight.

@amelimited ive used some of the techniques here in street fighting...they are extremely useful if you know how to do them correctly....anytime someone punches you can parry and hit their bicep or just infiltrate their space...you dont need to know about anything else, when that punch comes you can guard and attack from any angel.

love the vids man...

[unclebraddah]

@gx12 i disagree...i've been able to use this on quite a few WC practitioners...just gotta move off the centerline and parry rather than catch.

[unclebraddah]

@amelimited huh? who said you can't? keep an open mind cuz it's possible you'll meet someone who does this to you and you won't know what hit you.
