To: Subject: [Eskrima] TIPUNAN SA LOS ANGELES 2006 -Good times Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Attended the Tipunan Sa Los Angeles, On Saturday 9-17-06 my son and I attended the Tipunan (Gathering) Sa (at) Los Angeles at the invitation of Jay Deleon. We thoroughly enjoyed the event. Roger Agbolus was the MC and he did a great job of keeping things running smooth and on time. That was real challenge knowing the crowd. Everybody wanted to keep Island time. We had what many would consider the best of the West Coast. I liked every Master's presentation. I learned something from each one. Each had a real challenge to deliver what they considered their best technique to group made up of people who were not from their system, in the space of only one hour! They all used a three step method of presentation. This being demonstration, explanation with demonstration, practice with a partner. This also made the group quickly mingle and become friends. The masters who presented also stayed after and then helped others as well as participated. Some of the topics covered were use of the Pakal (short stick), knife & knife disarms, single stick footwork's, Espada Daga drills, stick boxing, and double stick drills. I could tell that everybody did not want it to end at the end of the day. My special thanks goes out to Jay Deleon and Roger Agbolus for putting together this event for the West Coast Filipino Martial Arts Community.

Your boy was the youngest participant, and he kept up with the big boys. You made some astute observations. Yes, Roger Agbulos has it down to a science now. He is getting to be quite a performer, too. We try to make our seminars both informative and fun, with lots of (good) surprises thrown in. We seem to have this (good, again) problem at our events-- too many great instructors in so short a time. Can you imagine, for example, Felix Valencia taught for just half an hour, and he had just gotten off the plane from giving a 2-day seminar in Texas? A real shame. We can afford to do that to Felix because he is a good friend who just wants to help out, and have some fun with his Lameco buddies I will have a full write-up in my websites in a couple of days. This is my cue. Watch for an even bigger Tipunan 2007.
