Hello all!!I have a friend who is interested in beginning his Kuntao/Silat journey in Washington DC.

The original Introduction set is chock full of application stuff; so much so that I changed it and made it the first of the “additional information” series I call Guru Course #2 and instead of Heartless Monkey Knife, I put Karambit in there because it follows Djurus Satu; which by the way is two hours of applications on that one form.

That one is Pak Victor's arrest and control course for LEOs that focuses a lot on knife defense.

Hmm, in this case I would probably be better off giving him the partner practice one first, then do the basic dvd. He needs something usage oriented to play with, or he won't understand the reason for the drills. If he sees the drills first, with no context, he won't appreciate it and not see the value of the system.I wonder if Guru Steve might be willing to add a new video to his line that starts with a series of applications (like a dozen or so) that can be used against the common attacker,

That sounds exactly like what I need!When is your next gathering? Is this a local one for your branch? or the big one with uncle Bill?

I haven't really paid much attention to all that stuff. I just know Guru Steve is on hiatus. I don't know all the details, and honestly, I don't care. We are all the same family regardless of what is going on behind the scenes. Everyone in my branch speaks very highly of everyone else who plays this art. Guru Joe in particular has allways shared fond memories of his training.

This, once again, demonstrates Sigung Steve's brilliance.

Amen my brother! HMK is, in my opinion, the beginning and the end! After all, Silat without the blade isn't Silat. I think everyone here should have a solid foundation in the use of the blade!
