Gary practicing his forehand live blade cutting at Sunday online #krabikrabong training - thanks for social distancing Gary. #buddhaisawan ...
#guruStas showing why the #golok -- one of the canonical weapons of #pencaksilat #gadjahputih -- is the length it is: this particular style of #silat has a strong focus on elbow techniques. This means that the golok, when held against the forearm as shown here, integrates almost seamlessly with the empty hand techniques already known.
Because we are concerned with the safety of our students and the welfare of our communities, #ancientfiredojo is currently not holding classes, but these days will come to an end, and when they do, the training will be legendary.

From #pekititirsiakali class at #ancientfiredojo in September: nothing says "social distancing" like swinging two meters of wood. #guroZack is never unhappy when swinging a stick, and the bigger the stick, the bigger the grin.
Be like Zack!
