Locks are an isolated study and can be useful depending on the individual. It's something that peaked our interest when we saw GM Bruce explained it in this way.
Always keep an open mind. Like GM Bruce said, you don't have to commit your life and time to learning Modern Arnis with him, he just wants to give you a little "nugget" that can improve your training or see things differently.
Great demos, good explanations. These two are such good instructors. A lock not being a submission is so intuitive, but I absolutely need to remember to keep my flow going afterwards. Though I keep feeling for Guro Chris though (thanks for taking the pain for me this time). I remember being the lock example/throw example/etc.. I would leave so bruised, I couldn't train for a day or two afterwards.
Indeed, great instructors and people inside and outside of the training ground. They won't hesitate to put the pain if they need to. But hopefully we all don't need to get into physical altercations if we can deescalate a situation. We've heard stories similar to Guro Chris's experiences. Usually the son of a martial artist will endure more pain because the parent expects more out of them. All in all, Guro Chris seems to like it 🙃
@@FMAPulse Hilarious thing is that no matter how bruised and busted I got, I always enjoyed learning the techniques. The learning of "sensitivity" is absolutely correct. Once again, I really like these two. Really great videos!
It is...GM Bruce said that Professor Presas learned it from Professor Wally Jay as they both did many seminars together. Professor Presas just added the stick element to it, and found out more painful ways to do a lock. GM Bruce talks about this in the interview.
@@FMAPulse That's what I love about FMA. They are a collection of many influences, both Eastern and Western. If something works, you can bet they'll start using it. I find all martial arts fascinating, some seem to have become calcified and rigid. FMA adapt to the circumstances.
@@sopwithcamelus When we talked to GM Bonjoc of Mata Sa Bagyo, he said the essence of Filipino Martial Arts, "we train and study other martial arts, so we can figure out how to get around it later."
Plus aikido was derived from jujitsu. The monkey can only move in so many ways. It doesn't take long to figure out most locks so no surprise that every system that uses them looks similar, not to mention cross-pollination.
Totally agree with you GM Bruce, the locks are not the end to fight, but a transition to set you up to strike the opponent or go into another move.

This is good to research and train in. I like the philosophy and concept behind this.

Love this!!!!
So do we. Train safe and try not to break anyone's fingers when your training LOL!
Thank you for sharing
Not a problem. Next will be the last of GM Bruce and Guro Chris's techniques of the week before we transition to the next featured instructor.
@@FMAPulseI look forward to it

Reminds me of Small Circle Jujitsu.

Lol...he's dragging him around like a raggedy doll.
Father knows best LOL!
1:53 this is nikyo and 2:23 is sankyo both are aikido techniques , most of the kali FMA in youtube are using aikido locks
And Aikido got there's from Chin Na.
Yes china owns everything these days but there is no solid evidence that aikido originated from them

Not much concern for the pain of the person whom the techniques are being demonstrated upon.
It's his son, so he's used to the rough housing.
