Shiro Tora Kendo

Starting with the largo stick and drills we progress to 2 handed drills in Kali then develop techniques and drills from kendo.

We uae Japanese shinai for better drilling and sparring
We use Japanese red oak boken for "suburi" drilling.
We use katana which equates to the largo stick and wakizashi which equates to the serrada stick.

Shiro Tora Judo

Kodokan Judo
Tomiki aikido

Randori not just with nage waza but the tomiki randori no kata

Newaza

Atemi waza - blow before throw.

The Power Punch - KO

To develop the power punch we have to change the delivery system of the punch.

1. The step

2. knee bend

3. Hip

4. Shoulder

5. The fist

Also applies to the slap.

We develop this technique on the pads and in line-up to the opponent's chin.

The purpose is to knock the attacker out cold.

Tyson in attack

If you watch the early fights of Mike Tyson he would use power and pressure to drive his opponents back to the ropes or corner and finish them with powerful short range hooks and uppercuts.

He rarely used the jab and cross as blows in their own right, just for pressure.

Watch his fights against Burbank and Spinks when he took their titles.
Watch his fight against Pinkton Thomas and his first fight with Bruno.

In attack we use the Tyson concept:
enter,
drive the opponent back with pressure,
terminate with close range hooks and uppercuts.

In KB we add kicks to phase entry and pressure.

In Thai we use Knees to terminate in the clinch.

In VT we use takedowns and the ground and pound for pressure and terminate or terminate with a choke or lock.

In street we use the whole HKE at termination phase.

Tyson classic KOs

Tyson's classic ABC was a low rear hook followed by a rear uppercut
the RU was then followed by a lead hook
sometimes the right woud follow again, either a cross or rear hook.



you also get to see a low left hook to the kanzo PSNA - liver/floating ribs which drops the opponent.

The RH KO is a great example of SDA - and of course First Rule!

Tyson vs Frazier - 1st Round Knockout


Mike Tyson vs Trevor Berbick
forward to 6 min mark to see the KO
then stick around for the slow motion multiple angle replays to see how it's done.

Tyson makes the RLH-RU ABC but the uppercut misses.
The RU doesn't do the job, it's the left hook that gets the KO.



Spinks vs Tyson
Tyson deployes the RLH-RU and the body shot drops Spinks to his knees - the RU never lands
When they restart, Tyson slips Spinks' cross and shoots a hook
- the hook misses but the following RU lands.

FF to 6 min to see the KO
then stick around for the slow motion multiple angle replays to see how it's done.




Tyson Bruno 1

{awaiting footage of replays}

This fights ends with a classic RLH to RU which makes Bruno's head wobble.
Tyson then throws a lead hook, which is blocked
then throws a RU, H, C ABC and the ref stops the fight.





This montage of a rare long fight has great examples of Tyson's powerful hooks
The classic RLH-RU ABC appears at 1.01 and then several times more during the match.

Tatsujin - the meaning of White Tiger

Meijin means a master of the martial arts.

Tatsujin means a "completed human being".

It is very difficult to become a complete human being.

To live as a human being means you are not obsessed with who is weak or who is strong. An animal has to be strong to survive in nature. Humans can live regardless of their outward strength.

This is the most important realisation of the Human Fighting Arts.

To work to be a meijin is to miss the point.

In STMA, we are not trying to be masters of the individual fighting arts, we are working towards being tatsujin, complete human beings.

Be a White Tiger, not just a person "doing" White Tiger Martial Arts.

Chi sao

At STMA our sparring encompasses stick, knife, kickboxing, boxing, grappling, Vale Tudo, MMA, karate - and chi sao.

It's hard to explain chi sao in writing and it's quite hard to see what it actually is if you are uninitated.

We practice basic luk sao roll drill as part of our FW drilling. It will instantly improve your trapping and locking sensitivity.

Chi sao has to be handed to a student by a Sifu and one stage at a time. You have to constantly check your position before allowing you to advance with each other. It takes time, but it's worth it.

We take the Jun Fan approach rather than the hard fixed WC approach, and you don't need to learn Sil Lum Tao first.

Chi sao is one of the areas in MA that is not often taught properly, especially by Westerners taught by Westerners with no real Chinese lineage.

As it's hard to see what it really is, unlike boxing or grappling, it's easy to misinterpret and get wrong.

Our chi sao is very adapted. It starts in Traditional WC, then works to Modified, then Jun Fan, which is much looser and works from a boxing stance.

Wing Chun enters quickly to chi sao, while JF is fully functional in the KB phase.

It's been said that chi sao is an expression of the Sil Lum Tao form in combat.
We always interpret that as refering to an expression of the concepts of Sil Lum Tao as opposed to the literal techiques.

We won't be expecting members to learn the Sil Lum Tao form, or any WC forms, but we will do SLT exercises and definately expound the concepts in combat.

I was talking to one of the STMA students who had some previous chi sao experience and he mentioned something he had been told previously about the position of bon sao having to be 45 degrees.

This is a classic example of somebody who doesn't know what they are talking about!

This person did not understand Sil Lum Tao or Chi Sao at all.

Let me explain.

The first thing you learn is Tan Sao. In tan sao the arm is fixed at 45 deg. You use this as a bridge and block.

You then learn fok sao - the "bridge arm".

Once you have these you roll tan to bon sao.
Bon sao is the third arm position you learn.

If your tan sao is properly developed before you start rolling
YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE BON SAO AT 45 DEG!

What was mentioned was a class where the student's structures collapse and the hand at bon pulls in towards the body. This is because they were not taught SLT properly - how to fix tan sao and fok sao before ever rolling to bon sao.

If tan sao and the roll are properly trained there is no need to ever think about this bon sao "compensation"!

SLT training ensures the structures are correct from day one so there is no need for later correction.

EMPTY YOUR CUP and forget what you think you know!

HIA

Hand Immobilisation Attacks, also known as Trapping.

These techniques are taken from WIng Chun Kung Fu, later adapted in Jun Fan Gung Fu, with the addition of nerve strikes and HKE from Kali.

Basic sequence:

lop sao
jao sao and lo 12
pak sao
side step pak sao and shuto
- henka - hammer anvil eye jab
inside bon to uraken

Advanced sequence:

pak, pak
pak, lop
side step, wedge, pak
pak, pak, elbow wrench, 13
pak, lop, wrench, 13, headbutt

Against a retreat to punch range: pak, gz, pak
Against a retreat to kick range: pak, dte

Pak, pak to Thai clinch with foream shiver

6 count drill 8 henka

HHH - heaven
HHL
HLL
HLH - standard

LHH
LHL - * - the fourth variation
LLH
LLL - earth
Report to Mod - Link to Post - Back to Top Logged

we now have 8 drills:

HHH
HHL
HLL
HLH

LHH
LHL
LLH
LLL

the next phase is to split the count in half.

In Heaven you would do HHH then HHH.
What you do in "64" is mix and match.
So you do HHH then HLH
or HHH then LLL
etc
After HHH on the left there are 8 possible trips to do on the right.

Then you go to HHL and do the same, each with 8 answers.

This gives a total of 64 possible combinations.

New Kali stick drills

Glove beat

This drill involves a normal drill, eg 6 count, but hitting the glove instead of the stick.

which isn't as easy as it sounds and take time to develop.

This functionalises your stick fighting for the street where you would it an attacker's weapon hand on the first beat.


Half beat

This involves sticking an extra strike in with the other stick in between beats of the count.

6 count goes like this:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
obviously

so stick in a half beat strike:

1 and 2, 3, 4 and 5, 6

the half beat can go anywhere in the drill

7 count drills are really just 6 counts with an extra beat.

The basic 7 count you learn at STMA is an odd LHH with the half beat after the 6th beat.

5 count is just 4 count with the extra beat after the 3 on the low line.

This now gives us expoential ways to grow 4 count to 5s and 6 counts to 7s.

Kali Concepts

This is what we'll be working on next in sinawalli.

Not wanting to overload everyone, you will need to work the half beat, 8 henka and 64 over time as well as putting the glove on for hand beat.

As we are doing that we will add practice in the sin concepts.
Be getting them right in 6 count we can do them with other counts such as 4 or 8 count.
When you get the hang of a new sin eg HHL, you will be able to apply the sin concepts to that drill.
This gives us unlimited potential for drilling over time.

Some of these concepts you already know and have practiced.

1. Matching - normal drilling - right hand matches right hand
2. Mirror - left hand matches right
3. redondo - one hand meets multiple beats
4. reverse redondo
5. complement - one hand high, one hand lo
6. chaining - eg 2,4,6,8
7. transposing - as your partner does the 6 count, change your response between cons - eg mirror, redondo, comp, etc

STMA Combat Throws

Though there are about 100 throws in Jujutsu and 40 that made the Judo gokyo, we have 10 primary combat throws which we will practice on the mats.

The first 5 are hip throws with one shoulder throw:

These are TENKAN turning techniques

Koshi Guruma or Cross hip or Hip Wheel
Tai Otoshi - body drop
Uchi mata - inner thigh throw
Harai goshi - sweeping hip throw
Seoinage - shoulder throw or flying mare

The second 5 are reaps with one sutemi sacrifice throw

These are IRIMI entering techniques

O Soto Gari - major outer reap
O Uchi Gari - Major inner reap
Morote Gari - double leg takedown
Single leg takedown
Brazilian clinch takedown


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have listed the 10 primary nage waza that form the STMA combat throws.

However as you progress through your training you will encounter many other throws. Some you will want to add to your personal repertoire, which is to be encouraged.

Shihan Mifune 10th Dan Judo lists over 100 throws in his texts. Coming from Jujutsu, these can all be classified as Judo throws.

Here are some of my favourite secondary throws:

Okuri ashi harai
Kata guruma - shoulder wheel
Soto makikomi
Tani otoshi - valley drop
Tomoe nage - stomach throw
Kani basami - crab scissors
Kuchiki taoshi - rotten tree fall

and three from wrestling:

belly-belly suplex
belly-back suplex
rice bail

However:
The rice bail appears in Judo as tawara gaeshi.
It is an excellent counter to morote gari attack from a shooter.

Belly back suplex appears in Judo as corner drop

Kuchiki is similar to aikido's irimi nage, though here we use an o soto step to block the back of the opponent's leg.

In Tomiki shomen ate is another variation of this technique.

That's 3 different variations from 3 different arts - Judo, Aikido, and Tomiki - arts that all stem from JJ.

That's what the eclecticism of STMA is all about!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two major throws we start with are:

Koshi nage - a hip throw - a tenkan waza
O soto gari - a reap - an irimi waza

from there we build a set of 5 tenka and 5 irimi waza to practice regularly.
Beyond that you would add other throws from the secondary and tertiary lists.

As these are COMBAT JUJUTSU moves we do atemi - blow before throw, using a headbutt before an irimi and a groin knee before a tenkan.

We also use push-pull concept to set the throw up.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To simplify matters further we now have a list of the

5 STMA Combat Throws

Cross hip koshi guruma
Flying mare seionage
Morote Nage double leg td
O soto gari outer reap
Brazilian clinch

these are the five that together cover every eventuality and every direction, taken from the list of 10 posted above.

It is far simpler to perfect these 5 throws as a set first then work to build your set of tenkan and your set of irimi.
