So, you fancy yourself a blade fighter?

Well, as ive previously posted im carrying a knife now. so i though, well i might as well try to learn to use it. so now im trying to learn blade fighting

i was originally going to learn it from my first sifu but he had to quit teaching. my dojo does not teach blade fighting. so now im trying to learn it solo which is not easy but its coming along. the way im doing it is taking my fma stick fighting stuff and transerfing it to blade. ive got a dull metal blade i use. as of now im doing drills and every now and then sparring with expo markers. to be honest i do feel alot more comfortable using the knife as a weapon after this small amount of training. the fma helped alot but what i have come up with now is a good regimine to keep getting better. i still feel though that i would only try to use this on someone if they were attacking someone else, if it were me id rather get my ass kicked and my money stolen and try to fight with my fist then pull my blade. i think there should be a veto on shoes.

Nom Nom Nom

Ferrero Roche are Delicious. they are like a tiny chocolate candy orgasm.

hmmm

not much going on. class has been ok i guess. im not as motivated as i should be. i really like hitting the bag but my weapons have suffered. no mater how hard i try weapon just are not as fun as they used to be. oh well, i need to learn self defense more anyway i guess.

im gonna go to l.a soon and train with the guys. should be good.

in other news i have started carying a knife at all times accept at school. its a fixed blade so not the most public friendly knife but oh well. its the izula neck knife from rat cutlery. a freakin sweet knife in my opinion. my favorite. paracord is so awesome, i mean holy shit.

hmmm

my birthday was the 16th. i got a heavy bag and some gloves which is f***ing awesome. ive been spending so much time working that thing lately. its seriously helping. i have also been doing a bit weight lifting to supplement my training. nothing heavu just 3,s 8,s and 10,s. i think all this has paid off because yesterday i scored my first clean blow on myu stepdad when we were sparring so i was stoked on that. i got a new phone, its la shiz.

pumping iron

ive started lifting weights recently to supplement my training. i feel it make the techniques more plausible when strength is added. especially the jujutsu techniques. the weapons feel lighter to. tomorrow is class so its off to bed.

pero necesito un barba porque quero todos chicas bonitas ayeee

Surprizes

Well today in class i had the opportunity to try my techniques on someone besides my sensei. i did kinda shitty. now i see why he has me repeat so much because im not good at the techniques. in better new i did get my blue belt. subway is pretty good.

stuf

well today is saturday, which means i had class. it was not so bad this time. we worked on techniques a bit more which was cool. i need alot more practice.

i should probably work on more weapon stuff to. as im pretty much done with all the forms (except lashing staff) so far my weapon katas include a jo, dao, lashing staff(two section staff), and hanbo. all the forms are slightly non traditional but effective. Bo should be the next weapon then spear. if i can get solid forms for those weapons aswell as aditional ones for the weapons im currently using ill be set for awhile on weapons and can focus on self defense. im also contemplating a sjambok kata but am cureently against it.

i dig fadora hats,

Estoy Enfermo

im so freakin sick right now. my nerves feel shot and i need to go to class tomorrow. i dry heaved all night last night. crazy glue is so freakin sticky.

Jo

The Jo is a very interesting weapon when you think outside the box. from the training ive had so far ive kinda come up with my own way of using the jo. its like a mix of bo, stick, odd staff stuff, and my own addings. i really like how fast transition are from short to long range. one moment you can hold it from the middle and in the next the end. i also like that its short enough to employ stick fighting methods.

anyway next week ill shoot a video of a jo set some of the guys at the dojo and i came up with. i have yet to decide wether to do a "movie" style version or just film the real deal and keep it legit. if theres time i would like to do both. hansens cane soda root beer is freakin awesome, but not as awesome as swords. swords are more awesome,

Today's Practice

Was bland. Im starting to feel like im learning nothing. i do the same think through the week, show it to my instructor and then what? nothing. whats the point of this? i need to find something else bad. machetes are freakin awesome, i mean you can just chop shit in half.

The Belt System

I often have wondered if i was to create a martial Art would i include the belt system. the answer is yes. for the most part im extremely fond of it though there are some negative things. ill start with the positive. for one it can be a good way for tracking progress unless its in a mcdojo setting where belts are handed out like birth control at the free clinic. it also is a good confidence booster. if used properly it can be an indicater of skill. there are other reasons that i cant think of now but lets just go to the bad. the bad does not lie in the system itself but in the way some people use it. it becomes bad when belts are rewarded regardless of skill and when the "black belt" is elevated to a point where it seems mystical or when its given out too easy. eclipse mints are freakin awesome,

rut in training

ive hit a bit of a rut in my training. whenever i train alone now it seems so bland and just not how it used to feel. im not sure whats going on, i wish i could get more time in class sigh. well what can you do. on a side note i was doing a bit of breaking the other day and injured my index fingers knuckle do to that one being less conditioned than my other ones and a much to difficult target. i did break a tile though that was pretty sick. i freakin love enchiladas.

todays class

why dont i capitalize my sentences? Todays class was good. we went through stick disarms, i got a new uniform also. im trying to create a new long stick form. today i was shown a form where the stick was helt in the middle. i liked how it looked. the form i am making will be for finger strengthening. should be fun. im also playing with some iai stuff to, its coming ok. im using a waki so i can draw fully. nukiuchi sounds cooler than nukitske. i think im gonna say that from now on in order to fully meet the expectations everyone has from the number one fun loving pimp in a wheelvhair, peace out.
