hellspawn Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 just to kick some life back into this thread: in the earlier pages, i commented on how i didn't believe in chi (or any of its variant spellings: ki, qi,or chee) or dim mak, or kyusho jitsu or any such nonsense, and that i believe anybody who claims to be a master of this is either: 1) deluded 2) fraudulent 3) lying 4) out to con others in one of the other sections here, the supernatural and the occult, a poster by the name of x brought the guy in this video to my attention. this guy is a highly ranked practicioner of daito ryu aikijujutsu by the name of yanagiryuken. he claims to be undefeated in 200 vale tudo fights, and he's a kiaijitsu master. have a look, the demos are impressive: i mean, the only thing missing are the fireballs and the cries of "haaadoookennn!" this motherf#&ker is so bad-arse he makes the dark lord of the sith look like a limp-wristed, purse carrying fag. he actually offered $5000 to anybody who could beat him. now before you "t3h tru3 b3l13v3r5" all fall on your kness and start lining up to suck this guy's dick, this is what happened when he went up against a real fighter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDmAT_bzsjk...ted&search= that part where the other guy was kneeling on the mat signing something, that was the contract stating that kiai master fuk weet was going to be paying out $5k to anyone who beats him. so, to sum up: if you're studying some system (once again i have to say that i hate the word "style", it sounds like two homos drinking tea before going out to buttf#&k somebody) that promises to teach you "t3h ul7ima73 d34dly dim mak touch of d347h" then pull your head out of your arse, get the f#&k out of there, and go study something that's actually useful. or go study dim sum, at least you'll get fed.

fireman111001 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Hi Shambala, I think that they've renamed the group already. UP Lema Lightning or something like that. The word "Kali" has been taken out. It is, afterall - not even a Pilipino word. I've many friends in the group, like John Escudero & Prof Bot Hokano... perhaps their names will sound familiar at the very least. I too practiced very little of this, which is lamentable. But personally, I'm not too interested in weapons. I find it impractical. Kung may dala kang katana sa Tondo - may magho-hold up ba sa iyo? BUT, this doesn't mean that I don't think its valuable. Because, it is. Just not my cup of tea. The name of the group is actually Lightning ArnisScientific International. The arnis style was from Ben Lema and one of his student Elmer Ybañez was our instructor. We were the first group of students taught by Master Ben Lema himself and later on by Guro Elmer. The UP group was formed after the La Salle group. Prof Bot was with the original group taught by Master Ben and Guro Elmer. Up to now, the UP group (I believe still headed by Nathan) is still intact, and they are also into capoeira. Quote Link to comment
gutsprecher Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hello all, especially to Sir Fireman111001. Siguro po kayo ay at least 7th dan black sa LESKAS? Last ko pong news kina Sir Nathan they still hang out in UP. Pero they are busy preparing for a new sport that they want to do. They started doing capoeira kasi it complemented the movements of arnis. I think they are also teaching a class in it, but for fitness only. I trained in LSAI-LESKAS for a year, but concentrated mostly on sparring. Sad to say..I have stopped for a long time. Prof Jocano still teaches a class there in UP for club members.

federicuger Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Saan pwede mag aral ng "wing chun" dito sa pinas? Quote Link to comment
hellspawn Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 They started doing capoeira kasi it complemented the movements of arnis. I think they are also teaching a class in it, but for fitness only. having done arnis (balintawak cuentada system under gm bobby taboada), and am now into capoeira (capoeira mandinga under mestre caveirinha) i don't see how this is complementary. look, i'm not after a pissing match here, all i'm saying is that my experiences in both fighting systems show me that the differences between both far outweigh the possible similarities or complements.

gutsprecher Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Complementary in the sense that they focus on striking with different areas of concentration, thus perhaps making up for any flavor lacking in one. For example in our school of arnis we rarely do kicks, and if we do so they are almost never above the waist area. Also, in our school po, the stances and movements are similar, so I said that. That's all I have to say about that. Not arnis in general, excuse me for saying so, but our school of arnis. Quote Link to comment
