Shawn is one of the most well-rounded FMA teachers.

[@mishaniaivanov715]

Same as you, GM! Greetings from Russia!

[@michaelangelo4583]

Nice, it is the same measurement Mang Romy showed my last year amazing more power!

[@williamsmith8790]

Love this guys instruction. His clip on Funker Tactical is solid gold.

[@jojitsu5620]

Hey, great teaching vid!! I have noticed alot of similarity between highland broadsword and Kali Ilustrisimo. Both use angle and sliping the leg. Love both arts!🙏

[@benquiller5212]

It's heavily influenced by spanish fencing i thought

[@snakeeyes6737]

That footwork called is lutang. Very effective. The system is very practical and straight forward. You can visit us in luneta if go in the Philippines

[@noejitta]

I know how you felt, i started training in KI after learning a few other systems. And i was like WOW.

[@mishaniaivanov715]

Thank you, Shawn! Spasibo)

[@jiujitsu9136]

the secret is the body posture not only Reterada and footwork ! the defender kept his spin straight but the attacker his body exposed like he lean in ! no magic , at the end of the day its nice and looks fancy !

[@colefowles4003]

Thanks for sharing this una pulgada stuff is 🤯

[@daxwilliams6269]

I hesitate to call it "footwork" as its a transitory position that trends to sit in the middle of other positions, making it incredibly accessible physically. Its accessibility is key because it is usable when breaking an opponent's timing, which is probably the crowning glory of K.I. Shawn's posture (after the step back) retains a right hip forward position instead of putting back as one would with a full step back, gaining him access to additional range. If you want to see a similar footwork in use, review olympic epee matches and see the positioning used on that long backhand thrust. Really great video Paulo, both cats did a great job showing this.

Cheers.

It is quite possibly the influence of Spanish friars & their fencing with its' geometric patterns.

[@PinoyAdventureRecipePAR]

its a secret geometry for weapon art, :)

[@MATTIKSA]

from my understanding PAETE Arnis is the Art of Measure ! more deeper

[@jaimetoquia3059]

Your counter outspeed the opponent and reach him on the counter because he is not fully backout.

[@rigorfiangrayan]

it lacks one step called launch

[@plantdemic3935]

It’s a garimot aka paete move and not kalisilustrisimo esp if its from macapagal 😂

[@tacticalguruji_og]

Exactly, At times you can find a bit with Yuli Romo but not with Kiro as well

[@Melchor-gb5rd]

Macapagal learn it from paete laguna and not from tatang

[@jaimetoquia3059]

You got longer reach. Why not try the other way too. You find your reach and he backs out and he hit you.

[@jaimetoquia3059]

That will never ever work with my own invented weapon and style.
