Basic Solo Drills for FMA

In my first Filipino Martial Arts video I demonstrated 14 basic angles of attack. In this video I demonstrate 5 basic solo drills that will improve your dexterity and weapon control. These are all good exercises to do as a warm up. 
1.	The first drill is a stretch. Hold the stick on both ends and shoot the hand through towards your chest. Do for a count of 10 – 15 on both sides. 
2.	In the second drill, grip the stick in the middle and twist back and forth. This drill warms and strengthens the wrist. It’s important that you really twist the stick back and forth. Try to twist a full 180 degrees and generate wind from the twist. Do for a count of 10 – 15 in both hands. 
3.	In the third drill, slide the hand down towards the end of the stick. Twist the stick a full 180 degrees. This movement is called an abaniko (fan). The abaniko drill will strengthen your forearms and grip, adding power to your strikes. 
4.	The fourth drill is a basic twirl. The twirl is called arko (circle). Grip the stick in between the thumb and fore finger and let it ride freely through the remaining three fingers. Choose a number of twirls going down, and do the same amount going back up.  
5.	The final drill is like the nunchaku drill where you pass the stick from under one arm to the other. This drill develops dexterity and awareness.

2&3. Randomly without capturing that elbow and being careful with the rotational forces that you are generating it is possible that you can damage your elbow joint. Not my words grandmasters words and quite a few physical therapy people.... Please please please please please start working these stretches very carefully with elbow isolation so that you do not damage the elbow joint. 

Twirling absolutely not do that against me I'm going to just knock that stick out of your hand cuz you have no control over it. It takes some very specific drills to get the nice flat rotation that you see the grandmasters do. Very rarely do we open up our hand however it is only for a very specific reasons like the wing block of Angel Cabales Serrada Escrima.

And FMA is not karate yes they do have rice flails. However FMA does not have put things behind your back techniques. 

And I've never seen Grand Master Dan teach any of this. Not only is i a Bruce Lee fan but also a big Dan fan. 

Dan Trained with the original Stockton Grand Masters including Angel cabelas as well as Leo giron Max Sacramento and Tony Samara. As well as quite a few others including Leo Gaje of PTK.

Stunned... 

By all means let me know where you source this FMA from. 

24 years and never seen 14 angles. 

But by all means. I'll listen. 

And starting a martialarts church. My friend is beginning with @churchoftheway and we are starting small and growing fast.

RE: Basic Solo Drills for FMA
Thanks for the comment! Yeah, most FMA systems only teach 12 angles. The ones I showed come from Inosanto Kali. Dan Inosanto trained with a lot of different guro's, so not sure what system he took them from, or if they're his own. I actually learned 25 angles of attack. Honestly, 12 is sufficient because most defenses deal with multiple angles. You'll have to explain what a martial arts church is to me?

I've got Dan's book. Trained originally under a Dan blackbelt... 

So... Continue. 

And the 64 attacks is old-school ptk. I've directly talked to Leo Gaje and just got threatened by his son... Which just got the heir of ptk again in hot water and permanently stained FMA in the ptk groups. 

And I'm aware who Dan trained with and which instructors of the previous generations he favored and promoted and those that he discarded... 

Just want to hear the reasoning... 

And yeah I've posted a bunch about training. 

And come be apart of the church...

That first one is a new one to me. Looks like I need to keep my sticks at my desk and get some practice time in on that one. I like that one a lot. It reminds me a bit of some tai chi ruler stuff, like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_89rO_F4Zw

The tai chi ruler is something I haven't played with. I've seen people practice with the tai chi ball. It's amazing what you can accomplish with simple tools and a little imagination.
