Notes:
Reviewed transitional drills 1 through 5. Some students ran through TD 2 more in depth. Next time, we will go through the isolations for this drill to get reps in and to make sure they know their targets.

Notes:
Tonight’s class we installed 4 of 9 template with right and left hand. Everyone had a chance to run through the whole template for both right and left hand. Later, we had them experiment using the left hand template to clear the receiver’s reflexive responses. Also, we had them switch from forward grip to reverse grip to see what differences/similarities in motion they experienced. Guro Joe C. showed the template with the receiver’s reflexive response to the right hand attacks using right hand in a forward grip and left hand in a reverse grip.

We ran through the targeting chains from the Atienza Kali’s Bolo Evo 1. Most of the guys has seen this before which was a good review. Next time we will warm up with the hour glass footwork and then try running isolations on the passes.
Instructing: Guro Lem
Attendance: Brian, Asim, Alex, Lance, and James
Notes: We started class with the review of the five-count passing drill with grappling isolations. Then, we added the hubud technique and funnel tap to the pin of the blade arm. We also performed gunting with empty hands to blade draws from concealment. Later, we reviewed 6’s from the Atienza Kali seminar with Guro Leo M. We also ran through two on one scenarios with grabs.

Notes:
Five count passing drill with Tuhon Tom’s combat sets 1 – 5. Like in different fma schools, these attacks are from different angles. These preset attacks are then passed through with an open or closed counter. Once the drill has been installed, the Feeder goes into the grappling range of the drill. Each angle will have a different grappling sequence that either goes into a throw or a control that the receiver cannot move out of. This control is done to the blade arm and/or receiver’s body, or head.
