Not lots to watch; only about 3 seconds, but long enough for 'our hero' to dispatch 3 armed assailants. Efficient. Also, I have recently borrowed the second two 'Matrix' DVDs off a friend. Someone told me that a stunt double for Keanu Reeves in some scenes was Inosanto-trained. Anyone with any info? I've got to give them back soon :) Peace and respect to all on the list Julian Internet communications are not secure and therefore the Barclays Group does not accept legal responsibility for the contents of this message.

Karate and stated that what he was doing in the film was "Ken(m)po Sticks"! A lot of Ken(m)po practitioners argue that what they are doing is different from FMA, although the little I've seen is obviously taken directly from FMA systems ("Ken(m)po Hands" that I've been shown were just variations on Hubud!).

My core style, Go Shin Jutsu Kenpo, has deep roots in CHA3 Kenpo, which is still considered Kajukenbo. The Arts (Grab/Rotation/Punch Combination/Knife/Club) include a number of ground techniques (standing+kneeling arm and body locks, kicks to body, etc.) but stop completely before full ground grappling and seated/lying submissions. I've always wondered about the reason for this, given that at least one of the Kajukenbo founders, Prof. Joe Holck, was an accomplished Jujitsu stylist. I always thought that this absence was a statement of a wise principle: REALLY, don't get caught up on the ground. This is really obvious in any multiple-man fight, but less so in a matted, sported fighting environment featuring two equally-weighted contestants and a referee. Has anyone ever heard their teachers talk about this, in particular, Sijo Emperado's words on the topic? Thanks for any words, Gints Klimanis --__--__-- _______________________________________________ Eskrima mailing list Eskrima@martialartsresource.net http://martialartsresource.net/mailman/listinfo/eskrima http://eskrima-fma.net Old digest issues @ ftp://ftp.martialartsresource.com/pub/eskrima Copyright 1994-2004: Ray Terry, MartialArtsResource.com, Sudlud.com Standard disclaimers apply.
