UP Vanguard Building, DCMT. Top floor, when you reach the top turn left. There's a small room to the left. UP Aikido Club trains here. Teacher is Tom Cruz 6th dan, vey nice guy. You dont have to be a UP student to join.

Thanks. Even a little news is good. Although I did read in another thread (under Mixed Martial Arts - kahapon ko lang nakita) here yesterday that Gerry Dino had already passed away. Sad to have read that news.

 

BTW - who is your Sensei?

 

Andy Macion has cancer, I cant remember what type of cancer. Yes, Gerry Dino passed away due to an ailment, again I forgot what kind of ailment.

 

Emir Reyes is my sensei. Sometimes Sam Bernales (asst coach of DLSU judo) drops by at PAJA and gives us some lessons.

 

Timing is a difficult proposition in the sense that its hard to share anything concrete about it. But you're right, it is very important. Only experience will teach you that. Basta sali lang ng sali ng tournament. Don't aim for medals at the start. Aim to gain experience & confidence. It took me 9 gruelling tournaments of absolute failure before I won my first medal.

 

I'll keep that in mind

 

To share my opinion, I would have a different approach to what is essential in Judo. To sum it up in one word, Judo is all about BALANCE. With it, your opponent can't throw you. Without it... well, we quickly become acquainted with the dojo's ceiling and its many intricacies.

 

Likewise, as you mentioned below - the number one deterrent to throwing our opponent is his Resistance. While he may have speed, agility and/or strength, there are many ways of getting around that. Ultimately, it will boil down to his own sense of balance & your ability to take it away. Without balance, anything you do to your opponent will work.

 

Hay... what you'd written brings back so many memories. Yes, thats all true. Nakakapagod to use power all the time. Even if you're strong, by the time you get to your third, or fourth opponent... its hard to even keep your arms up. I recall a tournament wherein, by the time I got to my ninth opponent - the tips of my fingers were already dark blue.

 

Hehe, oh how I can relate. Yung tipong gusto mo pa mag laro but your body says " I can do no more"

Gerry Dino from baguio judo club?

Good mornin Martial Artist.

 

Just want to say my opinion about various Martial Arts.

 

Im a former Taekwando Gin under Sir Ambat here in Pque. I stopped last Dec 2003 after my Red Belt promotion. Its a good exercise, and a good hobby. But I think in real life situation, di mo sya magagamit. We were not taught how to punch properly. Also yung mga practical kicks na ginagawa ng Muai Thai, bawal din gawin. Puro instep kicks or kicks na dapat paa ang tatama.

 

I think Muai Thai, Boxing, at URCC type ( I forgot yung twag, yung puro grapling at oponent take down) ang mas magagamit sa real life situations.

 

As of other forms of MA, di ko sila kabisado. Well pls educate me.

Dude try back reading, there is an e book posted in this thread about street fighting. With your training and a little knowledge, you could be a walking killing machine.. :cool:

Yes, the one and the same. DO you have any news of him?

Sa totoo lang gusto kong balikan yung PTA group ko. Gustong gusto ko labanan yung anak ni Sir Ambat, si David. Kahit na gulpi talaga ko sa kanya, atleast nagagawa ko sa kanya yung mga bawal. Naprapractice ko yung self ko sa true to life situation. Patay kung patay. Kung iba ka spar, waste of time. Ang daming bawal.

 

Kaya lang parang pera pera na yung ginawa eh. Imagine that 20 plus kayo in one session. Damn pano ka matututukan ng instructor mo????

Kahit magpa one on one ka, by nature PTA instructors would teach how to spar based on the rules not base on true to life situation. Syang talaga ang PTA.

 

In TAP/TIP, according to my friend na NBI agent. Nagpapatayan sila don(figure of speech lang po ha). Strict discipline. I thought nagyayabang lang. But nung lumipat don yung ibang friends ko, wow ang laki ng improvement. Di na ko makasabay. Gusto kong lumipat kaya lang nakakahiya kay Sir Ambat. So I stopped na lang. I said busy sched in school. But somehow it was because of the dull training.

San mas ok po? Elorde Boxing or Red Corner Boxing????

 

Pinapanood ko at kinocompare yung dalawang group. Di ko talaga sila masyadong maintindihan but there is a clear difference.

 

Sabi nga po ni Sir Chris of Red Corner. Ok din na try mo yung Elorde. Iba daw yung training mo don. Ok din yon kasi nasasanay ka sa ibat ibang approach at methodology.

Maraming magaling na TAP dito galing si Dean Vargas at ilan sa mga PTC....

 

If you wann learn boxing and not just exercise,ABAP and the navy gym are you best bets..

 

I use to compete in TKD back in college and I can say it is really more of a sport than a martial art

i agree with you guys about the decline in the martial aspect of tkd. imo, the worst thing that could have happened to tkd was to become an olympic sport. nowadays they're taught how to score points, how to shape the foot so it makes a loud sound on impact (which draws attention to the kick, again for points). there's no punching anymore; if you watched the last olympics you'll know what i'm talking about. they bounce around waiting to unload their high, flashy, spinning, jumping kicks again for what? points!

don't even get me started on the commercialisation of tkd. i've met people who got their black belts in six months. they were in the "acelerated program" which required a special fee of course. what the f#&k!

the other sad aspect of modern tkd is the bullshit politics that goes on between the two ruling organisations. it comes down to "my organisation is better than yours, nya nya nya". that's always detrimental to anything, not just in ma or sports, anything!

even here where i live this itf/wtf bullshit is prevalent. a good friend of mine (who is a highly ranked tkd exponent) can't teach because he's not recognised by the local federation. which is their lose, this dude is a bad arse who trained with the last remaining real tkd fighters left: the korean special forces.

i'm not putting down tkd, i did it for quite awhile myself, but it has to get back to it's original roots, unarmed combat.

i had the same shoulder problem as you do. i did my own rehab based on my research into old time (late 19th-early 20th century) training methods. if you're interested, let me know and i can send you the exercises i used personally to rehab my shoulder. i'm off overseas again in a couple of days, so there'll be a gap in my usage of this site, but i'll get to you when i return.

I used to study karatedo in HS for 3 years but I stopped when I reached collage. Now I want to go back and study martial arts again. My only problem is that I had my knee operated for an ACL injury. My knee is ok now but I would like to know which martial arts I can learn and practice and not be afraid of re-injuring my knee. I know for sure that t** Kwan Do (did I spell that right?) is out of the question.

 

Thanks for any help in this thread :cool:

[Olympus]

Ok na po ryt shoulder ko. I have a phobia in using in too much.

 

Anonther thing is kaliwete ako.........

Sana nga napunta na lang ako sa TAP or TIP.....

Sa pagkaaalam ko street TKD ang training don. Using kick in a lethal way for defending your self. Not just for scoring.

 

Pag sure na ko na 100% ang braso ko at I have time at resources, boxing or Muay Thai or Kick Boxing na lang ako. I still have to respect may PTA roots kaya malamang di ako lilipat sa TAP or TIP

Actually, hindi parin street fighting dun, they still do PTA type sparring but they do teach some practical techniques and the black belt division has strikes to the face already

bro san ba meron nagtuturo ng hybrid yawyan ngayon? magkano rates nila?

[Olympus]

Wats Hybrid Yawyan??

 

First time sa ears ko po.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Its basically YawYan with groundwork

[BlackWizard]

Yaw Yan(Sayaw ng Kamatayan) is like Muay Thai actually. The forms, the excecutions, etc.

 

Sa Hybrid dinagdagan na ng street fighting(Shootfighting, striking, wrestling) then yung mga grappling and submissions na-isama na din.

 

May ibang mga teachers na nag-infuse ng Jiu-Jitsu sa technique and also Aikido.

 

Yung Muay Thai pag piananood mo yun yung ordinaryong YawYan...

[lomex32]

Yaw yan they so called it the "Unified Martial Arts"

It is also based on circular techniques you find in Tai-chi and Aikido
