Another very minor correction to Mr. Wiley's article. Manong Cacoy spells the name of his art, Eskrido... as seen in the logo of the Doce Pares Federation and certs from the same.

Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net In response to the stick not being a good weapon for drunks etc. The question is really do the police know how to use the stick. Unless the police have had some training in FMA or related MA then the answer is that they probably may know certain techniques that they have told are effective, but until they are in a position to use these techniques they do not know whether the technique is effective or not. In reality I do not know many drunks that can get up and walk away from a No: 1. Drug addicts on the other hand are a completely different ball park. One training film that is shown to the police is where an assailant is shot repetatively by police doing a patrol. The assailant is shot by a .38, 8 times, once through the centre of the forehead between the eyes  and multiple times in the chest and still kept on coming. The two patrolman emptied both their pistols into the PCP addict, who ended up running over the top of their patrol car before  stopping . Possibly the police could have shot the guy in the legs - maybe there was not enough time, anyway the training film is old and designer drugs are more advanced so what the police are dealing with is not a normal person, so the argument about the stick being an appropriate weapon holds no water. The stick by itself can do no harm especially if the stick is just lying on the kitchen table, but in the right hands of some one who is very experienced, especially at corto, then even the drug addict would have a serious problem. PG Such a long way to go - but its fun.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: Click Here --__--__-- Message: 3 To: Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2002 00:17:48 -0400 From: eskrima-admin@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] Complementary Arts to FMA Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Hello dear fellow FMA enthusiasts, I was just wondering if anyone out there had any suggestions concerning complementary arts to FMA; an art someone can study that can fit it with FMA and complement it, not something like Karate or Kung-Fu which has totally different moves, but I mean something more like Wing Chun maybe. What would someone suggest as an art beside FMA for real no non-sense techniques and that would blend in well with FMA. Would Wing Chun be the right choice? Or is there something else out there that would be more effective? Maybe Muay Thai or boxing? And how about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Another question I had is if anyone knows what is the difference between Inayan FMA and Doce Pares FMA (Cacoy Canete's style). Where I live there is a Doce Pares school, but from what I've been reading Inayan is clearly a more complete and all-round style that is adequate for all fighting ranges. Would someone with some more experience care to comment? Your fellow FMA brother. Alex. --__--__-- _______________________________________________ Eskrima mailing list Eskrima@martialartsresource.net http://martialartsresource.net/mailman/listinfo/eskrima http://eskrima-fma.net Old digest issues are available via ftp://ftp.martialartsresource.com.
