This is the Trigram Matrix of 8
As the Block can be done against a kick from the attacker's Left or Right kick, that creates a Matrix of 16

STMA 2024 Class resumes on Monday Jan 8th As we do each year, we would look to see about getting any lapsed Members to return before looking to recruit a couple of new Members There is no planned extended Winter Camp this year, as we had the Camp as the session in between two weeks with no Class though Winter day sessions have always been an option - we would look at Grass evening again in the Spring for those available As it is we update the NEXT List and start the Season KNIFE Drills Applications Double knife applications Knife defences The last Season of 2023 we covered the Sinawalli double stick drills in depth and covered applications In terms of KENPO, some stick drills are taken from existing sets eg Five Swords and Thundering Hammers done with sticks, while five are "original" Kenpo stick sets We always start a session with double stick, and end with KB sparring In first Season 2024 we will start to flow more into Serrada drills and KNIFE, as well as double knife application and Knife defence As with stick, some KENPO knife are adapted, some are "original" There is knife defence on the scrolls of both GYOKKO and KOTO Ryu and we will cover these This will lead into our later work with Advanced Kobudo, starting with SWORD, and we will cover MUTODORI Sword Defence NRG and CRA We will make sure Energy drills get covered, broken down and applied, and the CRA Close Range Arts from Hubud are addressed WING CHUN Blast, Block and Punch, Kick Entry, Sets revisit and cover SILAT Entries, Strike, TD series revisit and cover KEMPO Knife, as mentioned above Stick/Club defence - we have covered GUN at the end of 2023, and started Knife defence, so will be looking at the STORM series Stick defences on more detail Two Man Mass attack BB Advanced Set Kempo extended sets Star, Step Freestyle form set Bring KENPO into KB Sparring, following our use of KARATE KUMITE in late 2023 NINPO The KOPPO and WEAPON work in Ninpo is ongoing as we regularly use the drills and Gata Will cover the TEN RYAKO Book Of Heaven drills at the start of the Season Rolling - Ukemi kaiten Shiho Ten Chi Tobi - Leaping Kamae - and sabaki from the kamae - stance and movement forms Sanshin Kihon Happo Mutodori Jurropoken - Striking tools - the fists These, as well as being a review, are the foundations for the rest of the GATA to be covered later We have gone over the Ryuha in depth over the last few years and list scrolls from the schools to look into, and there is more interesting GATA ahead Kukishin Weapons Togakure Shinden Fudo Takagi Yoshin JJ if you look back to the development we did with the NINPO Ryuha over the last few years, going over the Unarmed scrolls from each school, covering the Weapons, you see how it is done in parallel to our existing training, not as a separate Class or practice, and not done as a linear calendar "block" - there may look like there is a lot of material to cover and that it will take several years, and that is the point, it is an ongoing process SFR is the simplest as it has two more scrolls to add to what we have covered, in parallel to SFR Daken school - it is the school owned by the TODA family and done with the same "NINJA" feel as the other three main schools TYR comes to us from Ishitani, along with Kukishin and they are paired and taught this way - this Ryuha is not "exclusive" to any family and, as can be seen has more scrolls and more to cover at the "top end", so will be covered later over a longer timeframe JJ We managed to cover the TD series in 2023, as well as Aiki Immobilisations and pins, Judo Throws and Newaza, and NINPO combat versions from the RYUHA We need to go over the Newaza Combatives Mount, Guard, Side Mount then Advanced and continue developing through the RD FS KARATE We covered the Karate KUMITE in the last section of 2023 and we are ready to properly functionalise this into Sparring again Sparring sets KARATE Pads in Sparring Impact on pads Bunkai IMPACT Focus pads Boxing Thai Pads Kick Shield Advanced Kobudo - Jo v Bokken - Jo v Jo - Bokken v Bokken - Bokken v Bo Look to develop this is the Hall at first, later on Grass This will include the full KRABI KRABONG drills and sets which will pair up with MUAY THAI in the KB Phase GRASS will again become an option later in the year, usually when the clocks change and we get the lighter evenings - see how we make use of that option |
