Feels like Star Wars Prequels lightsaber combat, and that’s a compliment!

Ah yeah! I saw that years ago and been doing it ever since. That was a COLD blooded set of 3 traps he put on that guy. 😄 Way to recover though.

Awesome 👍

i have always wondered how would it feel if he would "agak" me. I have always trained with my father who is also a grandmaster of balintawak arnis, and have also experienced one time to train with his master who had passed away. I wonder if the experience is the same. I missed the sound and sensation when my "garote" hits the other. I didn't get to master the art only completed level 5-6 kinda. and have mostly forgotten it.

Love Pekiti Tirsia Kali!

In War, That sticks becomes Bolo's or machetes

"this is fake", "the other guy should be moving", "this wouldn't work in a real fight" you guys are missing the damn point. THEY'RE TESTING THE HELMET, OF COURSE HE'LL LET HIMSELF GET HIT WHILE WEARING IT ffs have some common sense

my grandma stand no change now!

Lip reading the last punch: "Putang-ina ka.."

Slow blade penetrates the shield!

I felt that first hit in my soul

What a weird video.

Si bagyo to ahhh bullet ang bumangga giba nka helmet

Where did you buy the helmet?

Eh. People dont hold still like that.

Bakit skorean flag naka balandra jan sakit sa mata

What is the brand model of the headgear being used?

Very loveable person. I can see how passionate the teacher he is. I can say this because i have met the man, and at least we had a conversation for more than 20 minutes

I had a pleasure meeting Guro Balton when he was coming back from the Thailand fight competition of his fighters. He is a humble and inspiring human being. I told him that I was honored to meet him. How often does this happen. Exciting.

Walk softly and carry a stick…

if the opponent attacked with a full strike, not a half strike, everything would be different

Reminds me of Wing Chun Pak Sau drills.

How did you become a Datu?

Excellent value. ❤

Speed timing accuracy power precision, movements with purpose

Kkkkkkk

ooooohhh ahhhhh wooooo lol

😮😮never underestimate a wise older Grand master, experience is key❤❤beautiful respect 🙏🏻 ❤

the move is similar to aikido?

Thank you Grandmaster.

imagine if that is a real blade,, youre dead

Imagine the scale of the art that allowed ancient Filipinos to use these against swords and machetes. Speed and ingenuity had to do the job.

He’s 70-80 and moving that well, younger him must have been a monster🫡🫡

lol how do u guys even know he's real? Has he ever fought using real weapons? what's his score in real fight to the death scenarios?

Grandmaster Taboada appears to remain in a somewhat constant state of Matrix-style bullet dodge mode, perception-wise speaking. Pretty awesome to see his Kali in a more unleashed kind of fashion, thanks to that gear (and to you volunteering). Thanks for sharing👍

رائع جيدا💪🥰👊

I’m more impressed with that head gear ;) …what’s the make/model!? Oh never mind I stoopid

I think on some level every instructor has a mean streak. For a instructor to hit you and make you pee on yourself just to make you” know a technique” Better is a little extreme! L O L The great thing about being instructor is you can get away with that stuff because the student knows that he can beat you.

Always loved your conceptual approach to teaching. Focusing on the lines so that this is where the focus should be not so much on“ doing the prettystrike technique“ like I see in so many staff videos. In other staff videos all you seeMostly is the performance aspect lots of twirling lots of manipulation with the staff that looks real cool but you left scratching your head wondering about the functionality of everything

I can see you doing it a lot easier Kelly, because you’re so much bigger than your opponent is in this case. I really can’t see you doing it as well one person as strong or as powerful as you are. You have to be one heck of a committed guy to go on the inside of a stick and do all of that I think anyway

Every time I see someone stomp out the ankle I twinge a little bit because I know that’s a fight and or you can literally just skip away from the fight at that point he’s not chasing you he’s not doing anything

As a Filipino martial artist myself even though I was learning Japanese JO I found myself intuitively doing many of the techniques that you’re demonstrating here already. I guess once you get the Filipino flow and mindset into you, you can pretty much adopted any weapon into your hands into that flow

So glad to find you again Kelly! I started studying the Filipino arts well in my 30s I’m 63 now and remember back in the day when I discovered your videos they were revolutionary and so unlike anything that I had been seeing previously. I lost track of all of my videos having loaned them out to various people over the years and thought I’d never find you again not thinkingI could just go to your website. Glad to see that you’re still doing this I currently started studying the JO staff with my friend he’s doing Okinowan karateSo this is coming at the right time for me

This is video after all Maybe just as a suggestion, you guys can do less talking more showing.

Anyone knows, "Largamoton" a forgotten style..???
