The point of the training is to teach you the technique so you can keep a clear mind and your body can react on impulse and instinct rather than being slowed by a mind clouded with fear or anger. The more calm you are, the more alert you are and the faster you can react to a situation. This is what the training is for.

Then some freestyle sparring to show the practicality of the techniques shouldn't be a problem. I don't know why he couldn't just say that they train traditional drills and also do freestyle sparring with attacks that are more likely to happen in reality, like "sewing machine" attacks, rather than someone just using the same knife work you do. And to answer his remark about not having realistic training with guns, that's what stuff like paintball is good for.

@theshadowbehindyou9631 3 жыл бұрын

@@Fardawg paintball is def not good for training. Airsoft would be much better suited. Paintball you do a lot of things you would never consider doing and the range, ball lob and marker system is just to different, minus a few markers like the dye dam. Airsoft you can get exact replicas of whatever firearm you wish and they have a lot more range. Even better is to go to a sim-round place and do that.

@jojarett5351 3 жыл бұрын

@@Fardawg He may not have said they do freestyle sparring but he did say when they train military and le it's a different story. They train for actual realistic scenarios. This video wasn't meant to be a martial arts ad to encourage us. It's actually titled "unrealistic" 🤣. To see some freestyle sparring with a knife (which isn't practical really) you'd have to watch a video that focuses on that wouldn't you? Lol And what he meant by unrealistic paper target training wasn't that the training specifically isn't realistic but by comparison it's no more or less realistic than their knife training. He was only giving an analogy. BUT they actually do live firearm training with blank cartridges in realistic scenarios. It's literally military and le training. There is no true realistic knife training. It's called "don't get into a knife fight" but if you happen to and can't get away here's something you can attempt to do because even if it fails to work you at least have a chance to make it. Flailing your hands in defense is better than just accepting being a walking pincushion.

There is actually, if you control yourself in a unrealistic manor then that's how you'll conduct yourself in a realistic uncontrolled situation. I've been in both situations where I trained controlleder then realized I lacked the understanding of raw violence and 'striking out of anger.' I've been punched in the face due to too much control. So I diversified my training from Arnis/jujutsu/judo and began Muay Thai. When you get in the ring with another 200lb man that wants to hurt you, all that control is useless without understanding what truly works at full speed contact. Timing and effect are entirely different. Outside of the ring, it's a lot easier application as I didn't have to worry about ring rules, just laws and appropriate escalation. The gun reference and paper targets is bs as there's adequate training through sim ammunition and lasers.

Relex drills do in time become actual combat drills when you do it for long time. 5 to 7 years with 2 hours or more a day. At some point your going to want a gun, a spear or a long blade then all this becomes just fun. There is only strategy. There is no such thing as Martial Arts. Being empty handed is not where you want to be in Modern Warfare. Use what the Law allows and be very careful about this ego business as not realistic. Training is simulation and not actual combat. Train as hard you can to get as close to realism as you can, BUT in reality the knife comes out of nowhere with you carrying a bag of Groceries and you are deceased. You can prepare for many things but the idea is not to go quetly and without a struggle and get a chance at survival. Train in everything and get to be expert at them and you still become a slab of meat! No arguments needed and Doug knows this because you will most likely NEVER see it coming!

I like the paper target analogy.. that explains it very well for those who easily calling martial arts fake based on drills they see...he explains it very precise here nobody actually thought bad guys will just stand in front of the cops/soldiers like a paper target just waiting to get hit.. in reality, they will fire back and cover.. but do we ever say what they doing at the firing range is bs? No, because it's a drill and that's the same point in martial arts.. muscle memory equates to presence of mind in an actual scenario

I can kind of understand this because the martial art I trained was also deemed "unrealistic" by many until I gained first-hand experience using it in an actual situation. It's actually a journey to prepare you for that one scenario you'd rather not happen to you or your loved ones. Still, martial arts like these are also meant to be enjoyed. That's why it's called a martial ART.

The more you are familiar with the movements the less you have to think about how to deliver a proper block or attack which means it is less stress. Having the fundamentals down helps you focus on the larger strategies in a fight if you have to use it. This is why pressure testing is key to the success and growth of all real martial arts. In karate and Kung Fu no one is delivering the full force of maiming blows to their training partner.. but the fact that you train them means you have the option to do so if you have to defend yourself in a terrible situation.

I started in traditional arts and realized how things really are. No disrespect to this instructor or any practitioner of kali, but i would suggest adding realistic scenarios and simple movements. Keep it simple, train the simplest movements rigorously, and teach based on concepts instead of techniques. Also, study real life attacks and make a baseline for how they usually go down, scenarios may change but usually the attacks are similar. Chad lyman C4C is a great thing to look up, the way he teaches is extremely real and viable.

100% correct. That is why there are katas, poomsaes(forms) and soft sparring sessions(the stuff that are "boring" to the skeptics). They are the ABC's. The "Martial art side" makes the art dynamic. That is where you improve your balance, control, stamina and skill in general. As you progress, without knowing it, the values of respect(oneself and to others), indomitable spirit and self confidence are inculcated along the way.

Plus going to Miami Beach before sunrise 30 or 40 guys in full Karate dress warming up with 1 mile run before doing Katas and basics, had the fun factor of invariably seen a drunk or two who was sleeping it off on the sandy beach waking up to see a bunch of Karate dude’s running towards them.

Kali is a two-handed, weapons-based art. It's highly versatile. You can see in this short demonstration just a tiny fraction of what it has to offer in terms of strikes, locks, defenses, etc. The only way you can learn it is to simply repeat and repeat and repeat until it becomes muscle memory. Then you work another variation to muscle memory and on and on and on, until your brain gets to the point of reacting by feel. With Kali, it simply has to be that fast because you don't have time to think in a real combat situation. You have to be able to rely on your training, to rely on your body to move when you need it to. Call it "unrealistic", but if you're working with kali sticks, the bruises are real and they really can break bones, and then you talk about bladed weapons. Any knife fighter will tell you that in a real fight, both fighters get cut and "death by a thousand cuts" is a very real thing. It's too dangerous to not make it somewhat unrealistic so you can practice it safely enough to keep on a training schedule.

ok so what we saw was tapi-tapi, in training, for the practitioner to learn, the sparring partner must give his hand. we are always reminded by the guro/guru that you are doing the practice drills, they WILL demonstrate the correct way of doing things but for learning, what you saw how chris did is the basics. once you learned the next level, then you'd understand why KALI can be very dangerous. If you've mastered it, you will be able to defend yourself in life or death situations. the thing to remember about your sparring partner giving his arm is when the real thing or danger scenario comes. if you have mastered/trained your techniques properly, when the weapon/punch comes in, you will defend yourself naturally.

This is all about options and extensions. This merely teaches your body and mind to react, no more no less. This isn’t about techniques, this is learning to play. The counter is hopefully what ends the confrontation.

Sparring in training provides you with close to reality situations that calls for your free flow response and reaction based on what you have learned. Repetitious training develops skill and mastery that can develop one's self control and confidence in any given situation. Reality is outside the training arena. It's either you avoid or fight in a situation. Better well trained than not trained at all.

Learning again n again n again will makes u know the basics. .once u know the basics u can create new moves and way to counter your opponent. .such race who dont understand it was a weak race. .even if its on the reality. .these were good reflex for close combat. .
