Hey Mark. I was actually going to do a public video from a students standpoint on these. I might still do the video, but I have to say you've answered a large number of my questions. Does this apply also to the drill Brush, Grab Strike? It seems to be the same principal with 3 touch points, but instead it's using the Brush/Parry/Pass motion instead of starting with a block. Is that fair to say? Also.... I hear often that both these drills, (Brush Grab Strike AND Block Check Counter) apply in the exact same way to a bladed hand. But if an individual with a blade in their right hand is performing such movements, the blade can be in a hand that's either 'closer to,' or 'further from' the opponent. Does this change anything? My assumptions on this are: if you have a bladed hand, every three count iteration should start with the bladed hand so that you use the leverage tool twice in a three count sequence. Example - Cut, check, Cut seems to impact the opponent more aggressively than Check cut Check. Is this a safe assumption? And again, does it change anything in this drill when keeping in mind that the blade can be closer to or further from the opponent depending on which way we take our angle? Thank you from Prince Rupert, Canada!!! :)

Thank you

There used to be a video with a chalk board and explanation. I’d love a link to that

Are you concerned that the timing and distance for these attacks your partner is feeding might be distorted? His cross was shown to be lined up out of distance. How do you compensate for the reduced time and stronger opposition your opponent realistically has? Any thoughts on their ability to grapple being easier?

So, he starts an FMA style and names the style after himself? He doesn’t even speak with a Filipino accent which means he grew in North America and not in the Philippines.
