I have a friend in New York City - he lives and works around the Times Square area - who is interested in taking classes. Could someone post or e-mail me a list of schools near there? Thank you, - -Kevin "People who object to weapons aren't abolishing violence, they're begging for rule by brute force, where the biggest, strongest animals among men were always automatically 'right.' Guns ended that, and social democracy is a hollow farce without an armed populace to make it work." - L. Neil Smith, _The Probability Broach_ "Over 65 million American gun owners didn't hurt anyone today." - Rolf Sondergaard ------------------------------ From: Mike Casto Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 14:21:02 -0700 (PDT) Subject: eskrima: Re: Bando First, let me say that I don't study Bando and have only been to one Bando seminar with Dr. Gyi. Consequently, my comments are in no way official ... I just wanted to relate my experience with the art. Dr. Gyi was great. Very down to earth, no-nonsense kind of guy. The portion of the seminar that I was able to attend was on stick grappling. It was material developed for the UN Special Forces to use as riot control. We used a 3' baton for the work. Since the goal of the UNSP was to *not* draw blood, there was no striking in what we did (though a lot of it could easily be modified to include strikes). None of the concepts that I saw were new to me. I had seen all of them in FMA ... but the way Bando applied those concepts was different and interesting. In many of the locks, the defender (with the baton) never took either hand off the baton. So, in answer to your question, it was different than what I've seen in FMA ... but it was the same too. Now, my question ... My instructor is interested in bringing Dr. Gyi in for a seminar. Does anyone know who to contact to arrange this?

Those successfully completing this two day seminar and passing the exam at the end will receive full Level 1 KdM Instructor Certification from Suro Inay. The cost of the two day seminar/certification is $275. Kadena De Mano is an Eskrima style that Suro Inay learned from the late GrandMaster Max Sarmiento. The literal translation of KdM is 'Chain of the Hands'. KdM is a combination of empty-hand and knife/dagger techniques. KdM covers basic and advanced hand and knife drills as well as permuted locks from the basic/advanced drills. Lock/flow/trap practice drills are stressed. Additional levels of certification are available after successful completion of Level 1. Those interested in attending or in obtaining more information should contact Suro Inay at eskrimador@aol.com.
