Thank you for your time. Thank you for your input. You my motivate me to get the training I need to feel confident just to walk to the store again. 🙏

[@pasquinilli]

Thanks Kevin. It stinks that we need to have more confidence just to live our daily lives, but it’s better to take action than cower in a corner. Stay safe!

[@philstone3859]

I’m watching, have to say it’s fun and educational. I’m a a cane/walking stick guy so I’ll be getting one of these. 👍 🇺🇸

[@jamesgroves5294]

Outstanding 🙏🏿

[@adrish8743]

It was amazing Mr. Matt. Loved it!

[@garykidney3694]

Hi Matt, I am confused, I have watched several of your videos and I find them very interesting and helpful, as I never used a cane for selfdefence. In some of your video's you say not to swing over your head to strike as it can be blocked. Now you are showing to strike overhead??

[@pasquinilli]

Thanks Gary. The concern is if you bring your arm away from your shoulder. It’s ok to strike over your head as long as you keep the arm in the vertical centerline of your body. I’ll add a better description in the next livestream.

Great training!

[@pasquinilli]

Thank you Tee!

Wondering if one can get a bit of 'extra' force when going for a balls strike from standing if you apply just a bit of down force on the cane before you do the strike, then lift the cane off the floor with that tension causing it to 'pop loose' and travel a little faster than a 'standing start' hit? Another idea, if you have someone yanking on your cane trying to take it, as they're pulling on it how about you step in and shove the cane body right into their teeth before you do the twist - strike?

[@pasquinilli]

Yes. I think both would work. Good ideas!

[@raymondsanchez808]

Speaking of cutting it with a knife. Wood scoring the cane down the side, be like makeshifting "notches" for (raking) in a self defense sitiuation?

[@pasquinilli]

Yes. That is a feature that works!

[@raymondsanchez808]

@@pasquinilli 😁 thank you. I was curious heh that sounds like a viable option. Of course, it would never make up for real ones. Hah when your penny pinching ,you'll use what you can muster 🙏

I have had Hapkido-- many years ago (one of my black belt arts 5th degree or higher ( I have 5 arts) but was in a BAD truck accident in 99 and after all these constantly painful years and NO practice-- my muscle memory is gone as is my conscious recall of much of that at all. I'm ready to do ACSD CANE-DO, are you in that? I heard you reference Cane-Masters--

[@scottanthony3426]

Thanks Matt. Watching the comparison between canes, my engineer brain has kicked in. The rattan cane is lighter due to materials of construction. However, I've been on the Cane Master's site, and noticed that the Dojo cane can be purchased in 7/8" diameter oak or hickory or 1" diameter oak or hickory. Not sure which diameter Dojo cane you are using here, but what are your thoughts on going to the 7/8" oak/hickory to save a little weight (for speed) as perhaps something in between the rattan and 1" diameter hardwoods? Or is it more important to have something that better fits size of your hands?Something too small might be harder to get a good grip on. (I realize the 7/8" hardwood loses some strength vs the 1".) I'm going to check the web sites to see if cane weights are listed. I do like the idea of having both.

[@pasquinilli]

Thank you Scott. Your instincts are correct. The 7/8” is faster and if you choose hickory (in the video I am using 1” oak,) then you still have a heavy and sturdy cane that is faster and easier to handle because the diameter is smaller.

Good morning Sensei Matt. Just checking if you received my $49.99 thank you contribution to your dojo. I’m not sure the payment went through. Please let me know.

[@pasquinilli]

Hi Jeffrey. That is very kind and generous! I have not seen it yet. Where did you send it? You can email me at [e-mail] Thank you!

Sir. What if the attacker is in a front stance with one leg forward and you don't have a good shot to the goain. Is there a different first shot. Love your teaching. Learning so much. Keep it up..
