Our most recent Legacy Workshop was amazing! There were all different ages and skillsets present, including students from inside and outside the Martial Way Legacy.
Coach Brandyn stepped in with a flurry of Lameco Eskrima Single Stick Stroking Drills to help everyone’s understanding and coordination blossom with weapons. He took everyone through the drills one by one, then had us working in different directions and eventually doing the whole set as a flow!
Guro Larry took over after that as we journeyed down a series of locks from Filipino Martial Arts called the Kunsi Flow. This series worked through simple wrist locks, as well as elbow and shoulder wrenches and breaks. These elements flowed and gave each student a better understanding of where the leverage is when utilizing the locks in more modern grappling positions.
Coach Vlad followed up with the sweat as he taught a vast amount of different Muay Thai knees and a combination of knees for everyone to add to their arsenal. We practiced on our partner, worked with the punching bags, and even the Thai Pads to get a feel for different angles and resistances.
Guro Larry took the last hour and brought a topic to life on countering the back position or bear hug. He borrowed from several arts and created a series that helped everyone counter before, during, and even after the transition to the bear hug. This flow had everyone working for each counter from the beginning, which taught us the sensitivity and timing of the next counter.
There is not another workshop that offers nearly as much experience, knowledge, and training for free anywhere. Our next one is Saturday, October 16th, 10am to 2pm. Be sure to mark it on your calendar and join in the training with us then.
Also on our calendar is our next five-week Specialty Training Program (STP) starting Monday, September 13th. The first two STP’s saturated topics including, Knife Disarms and Ground Self Defense with sweeps and reversals. Stay tuned for more information about the next STP, and we hope to help you more with your training goals in the future.
