A drill designed to teach students how to quickly recognize a threat and control the weapon with the left hand on real-time. Freeing the right hand for elbow strikes and knees.

  • Yes, no set-up. I only wanted the left first because of espada y daga practice. Left first because a knife fighter will grab with his left hand, pull you off balance and begin stabbing. The control of the dagger is very important, watch closely. I didn't strike with knees and elbows, as I would normally. I just wanted to parry both hands and control my opponent. There is probably 6 to 8 moves in a second or so...survival is hard against a bladed opponent. Good Luck. Master Ron Saturno

  • I Put up this video for you Pedro. I wished I had a few more like you in the U.S. How strange I would meet someone in Portugal who has as much love for the Filipino Martial Arts as anyone I have met in a long while. There really is something about FMA that is special about FMA. You and Butch have been special finds. I should have gone on Youtube sooner. With the Warmest Regards for you and all others who Love FMA and Martial Arts period...Ron Saturno

  • I had a wonderful talk a week or so ago with the Great Bobby Antuna of SLD fame,{Originator: Dentoy Revillar, (an unsung hero here in Stockton, Ca.and a world-class talent) You said that I am not showing footwork, so everything is OK, if I show just the hands. Here Bobby is a hand-drill on real-time. I believe that we were all so very blessed to have learned from the many fine Escrimadors who possesed talents, we may never see again ( All of the known and unknown). Sincerely, Ron Saturno

  • great video guys, there is a lot here and it will take me a while to analyze all that went into the drill. I assume it's all free flow so no pre set responses right?
