Somebody once had to apologize profusely to a group of 5 shirtless well-tattoed drunks who were trying to pick a fight with him. They probably went their way very impressed with the intimidation impact of their tattooes. They never realized that the only reason the would-be victim submissively apologized was to avoid drawing the chamber-loaded Glock 17 in his shoulder bag... and face the legal consequences later on. This goes to show that even regular street denizens make mistakes I think this happens more often than people realize. --__--__-- Message: 2 Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2005 13:19:42 +0100 From: abanico-video-knuettel@t-online.de Organization: ABANICO GmbH & Co KG To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] Professor Remy Presas Memorial Camp & 3rd FMA Festival Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Hello Everybody, I would like to inform you abot THE Modern Arnis and FMA event in 2006. From the 11th to the 21st ofd July 2006 there will be the the "Great homecoming for the FMA". The fiollowing events will take place: A) The Professor Remy Presas Memorial Camp, B) The 3rd FMA Festival and C) The FMA Gala night. The first two will be held at Clark Field, Pampanga, Philippines, the FMA Gala Night will be held in Manila, Philippines. A, the Professor Remy Presas Memorial Camp will be held from the 11th through to the 14th of July 2006. All mayor Modern Arnis Grandmasters and Masters of the Philippines will be there to teach. Also many international "big names" of Modern Arnis will be asked to participate and will hopefully be there. This will NOT be an event of ONE organisation. It will be organized by the IMAFP in the Philippines, but ALL Modern Arnis groups worldwide will be invited. B, the 3rd FMA Festival will be held from the 17th to the 20th of July 2006. Alfred Plath and I have organized the first two FMA Festivals in 2002 and 2004 in Germany, which were with 450 and 600 participants highly successful. Now the Philippines have taken the responsibility to organize the 3rd FMA festival in the Philippines. It is a grand come together of many different FMA styles. Many filipino Grandmasters and Masters will be there to teach their special style. C, the FMA Gala night will be held at the 21st of July in Manila. There will be a gala dinner, exhibitions and much more. For more information about these events, you can visit the festival website: http://www.fmafestival.com If you have questions you can ask them here or write to fmasecretariat@fmafestival.com The earlier you register, the cheaper it gets. This is a great chance to train in the country of origin within an organized setting. I hope to see many different countries and members from all different Modern Arnis and other FMA groups participate in this big event in the Philippines.

Many of these topics have been dealt with over the years ive been on here and ive participated in them before, maybe its better to leave others to muse, take or give offence, but when a thread falls into disrespect ill give up on it, too many important things to do in limited time. In the 9 or so years ive been on the list its taken many turns and people will give it gems when their time comes. One mans scrap is another mans treasure after all. > It's an interesting group dynamic. One person feels the burden to take an action, the rest of the group, recognizing that, step back to allow that action to occur. -- Pat www.amag.org.uk --__--__-- Message: 5 Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2005 13:39:48 -0800 (PST) From: Guro Dennis Servaes To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] I am new to the group Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Hello.

Welcome to the group, Dennis. There are lots of Serrada people here. I guess I could call Vincent to ask him this, but... www.cabales.com has been down for perhaps a year now. Do you know if there are plans to bring it back to life?

Are you referring to his drawing of a shrike on a twig? Interestingly, I also noticed that the book cover shows an 1848 print of Musashi in a double-stick pose. It seems that Kendo had its own version of "Sinawali" - at least back during the days of Musashi. >Message: 2 >From: "Lance Cross" >To: >Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2005 02:27:19 -0800 >Subject: [Eskrima] Musashi Miyamoto >Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net >All, >(Starting a new topic from natural fighters) >I was writing some notes down about the use of blades and from reading a >copy of the "Book of 5 Rings" Musashi was also an artist.
