The guys training with wooden swords (Bokken) and metal swords.

Learning Arnis is great, but what do you do when someone is running at you swinging a weapon?

At Sydney Stick Fighting we train with a variety of weapons - knives, sticks, staffs and even baseball bats!

Another Balintawak video - John Russell and I doing knife training.

John Russell and I training Balintawak Arnis on Mindil Beach, Darwin.

John Russell and I went to Darwin for a week, to escape the winter cold in Sydney.

I uploaded some new Balintawak videos today - El Barto and I practicing some more advanced stuff, like Group 5 and knife.

I’ve setup a new Meetup.com group called [Sydney Stick Fighting][1]. It’s early days yet, I’m still gathering email addresses and getting people to join up.

I’ve added some more [Balintawak Arnis][1] videos to my [Youtube page][2]. They are edits of my training in the Philippines.

I’m in Cebu, the Philippines at the moment, learning Balintawak Arnis (stick fighting). A little video of my training – I’m still very much a beginner.
