Your video is the best I’ve seen since TH-cam came out. In the mid 70,s I spent three years in Olongapo, PI training twice a day six days a week with Ross Dizon in Arnis de Mano. Your basic strikes, thrusts , hand and foot positions are exactly what we use and you do it very well IMHO. Closing your hand while holding your bastón is something that most westerners don’t do. Kudos to you. Also very few people seem to call the short 18” stick a tanbo or doubles being the Nitanbo. Good Form Sir.
In Karate we taught the students all of the body targets. And what weapon to use, foot, hand, elbow, knee. You should teach a class of the target areas and what strikes to use. That would put your training of strikes to body targets. So when your out in the streets you know what to aim for and what technique to use.
Great video Matt. Thanks for explaining about religious people who think martial arts are wrong. I have faced this problem with some Christians who said that martial arts are satanic. They also said that Jesus did not say to learn self defense.
Thanks Danny. Are used to try and convince them but now I just let it go and move on. It’s like politics, you cannot convince an emotional person with a rational argument. Better to just smile and love them as they are.
As a Christian I use to read the Psalms 144:1 Blessed is the lord who is my Strength and Fortress Who teaches my Hand to Fight and and Fingers to make war That means God allows us to train martial arts to Defend ourselves and love ones
i always wanted to get into kali sticks, but can't figure out how to carry it legally, so its kinda defeat purpose of learning the art , but can't have the weapon with me.
I decided to switch it up from the bo and try this. I have three foot dowels from Home Depot. My arms are definitely feeling it. I already am getting blisters. Is that normal? I think I should get shorter sticks so I may look up those palm sticks you had mentioned.
The rattan escrima are much lighter-it might help lengthen your training time (you won't fatigue as quickly) and will most certainly help with the blisters.
Measure the length of your arm from shoulder to finger tip. I have different sizes available in my online martial arts supply store. Do you need the link?
Its normal for us Filipino hit that when i was a kid back then lol i mean whip my butt... i never train and im not a violent or dont want to hurt anyone, i know its for self defense ..
Great video. Thank you. Just a comment about heaven. Most Christians don’t realize this even though it comes from the Bible. And it is a universal truth in fact. Bible says there are 3 heavens. The one you see during the day ie the sky. The one you see at night. Beyond the sky. Planets and stars etc. The 3rd being the Spiritual Realm. “Above” and beyond the stars. Just like stick fighting it’s all about the details! Great workout. I’m gonna use it!
I like the way you teach. Except as a beginner lesson. I feel you are going a bit too fast. Remember we are beginners and we are trying to understand the moves. This lesson is for someone with a little bit more practice.
I disagree 100%. Make every move 10.000 times with each hand, and then you will see some progress. After 100.000 times you will be even better. Eventually after some years you gonna master it. There is no easy way, only the hard way. You can find tips and knowledge on internet, but it's all about muscle memory. When you struggle on a move just listen again and again what he says or capture yourself and see the video to find any mistakes on your technique.
Me again. Will you hurt yourself if you don't warm up. Yea in training you do warm up. But in real life you just go for it and defend. Remember "this not tournament, it's for real". In other word you don't tell your thug wait until I'm warmed up. Just fight.
Good point. But you warm up when you train so you can grow stronger and faster for when you need it. The warmup keeps you safe from injury when you train.

This guy knows what he doing!
His technique is on point and is family with different weapons.
Much to learn from this man!
thank you. I just bought two sets of rattan sticks that were delivered yesterday for me and my kid. This is perfect for us.
Enjoy! And keep training. Thanks!
I started learning nunchaku 6 months ago by watching your videos. Now you're getting me started on arnis
Thank you for showing all us newbies these great drills.

You should teach a class of the target areas and what strikes to use. That would put your training of strikes to body targets. So when your out in the streets you know what to aim for and what technique to use.
Fantastic idea Robert! Thanks!
You r a excellent teacher. I like the way you break down the strikes slowly so a person can learn good. Thank you.
This video should have thousands more views. Great content. Thanks for a great summary.
Again sending ♥️ to you from South Australia.🇦🇺
Thank you Glen! How are things with you?
I’m learning this with drum sticks. Cause I’m a drummer and I thought it would be cool to be able to fight with them.
Good plan! Keep training!

Teacher, do you know if there is any coalition between the flexibility of the wrist and shoulder 🤔 issues?
Huge connection! Improve your wrist and you’ll improve your shoulder.

Hello. Master. Matt
Added a loop to put my wrists through at the end of my kali sticks so I wouldn’t accidentally let go and have it fling into a wall or something
Good idea!
Great video. Love your passion for the martial arts. I appreciate you keeping it real about the fake stuff.
do you take your sticks with you most places?
J'adore Kali.
What size are kali sticks 🇬🇧
i always wanted to get into kali sticks, but can't figure out how to carry it legally, so its kinda defeat purpose of learning the art , but can't have the weapon with me.
I decided to switch it up from the bo and try this. I have three foot dowels from Home Depot. My arms are definitely feeling it. I already am getting blisters. Is that normal? I think I should get shorter sticks so I may look up those palm sticks you had mentioned.

Great video. Thank you.
Just a comment about heaven.
Most Christians don’t realize this even though it comes from the Bible.
And it is a universal truth in fact.
Bible says there are 3 heavens.

The 3rd being the Spiritual Realm. “Above” and beyond the stars.
Just like stick fighting it’s all about the details!
Great workout. I’m gonna use it!
Great info and perspective! Thanks!
its not like i found this video through call of duty...
The police forces need your type of training👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I like the way you teach. Except as a beginner lesson. I feel you are going a bit too fast. Remember we are beginners and we are trying to understand the moves. This lesson is for someone with a little bit more practice.
Yes. Agreed. Try this one from a few years back and I will also make a new one th-cam.com/video/_2-Xw6EE59s/w-d-xo.html
I think this is PERFECT! You can pause and rewind anything that needs clarification. 😁
You can adjust it in playback speed. By clicking in upperrigt button. (.5 or .25)
This video is perfect!

Just fight.
Good point. But you warm up when you train so you can grow stronger and faster for when you need it. The warmup keeps you safe from injury when you train.
we can’t here you
Yeah. Weird! What happened to the sound?
You can go to jail for killing a guy with a stick as well as a gun, the modality isn't as important as the result
Excellent point
