I had to post this because it was super cool!! Footage like this rare and it is so awesome to see in a historical perspective. This is a Sword exhibition filmed in October 1897 touched up in 1080P.

…………….

⚔️ This piece of vintage footage of a Japanese Sword Exhibition was Filmed in October 1897 by Lumiere camera operator Constant Girel 
Shot in Kyoto, Japan it features an exhibition of the Ono Ha Itto Ryu Style.
I have colourised it and restored it to 1080P HD & 60FPS and thought it was too cool not to share.

Japanimo by Arthur Porter (1905)

TheKali program at RCW is a complete system. Mainly because we subscribe to  Guro (teacher) Dan Inosanto’s method of Kali, weaponry and tools, and Jeet Kune Do. Guro Inosanto was at one time Bruce Lee’s protege. However he’s gone on to dedicate himself every day of his life to the pursuit of greatness in the field of martial arts. At 81 years young, almost every major martial art has felt his influence from Boxing and Muay Thai to Gracie Jiu Jitsu and Shooto. 

Most close quarter self defense drills you’ll find with a weapon might illustrate one component of that range. For instance they might emphasize disarming the weapon, punching or grappling. Others may prefer to hit with the handle or butt of the weapon, while others still use the end of the implement. 

When I first saw this drill from Guro Inosanto it blew me away. Here’s a fundamental that quickly has you doing all the above. It’s very reality based and rapidly becomes a great sparring component. Whether you’re new to this type of training or a seasoned pro, these fundamentals are always a solid base to turn to. 

Hope you enjoy and if if you’re interested in any of our classes we encourage you to explore River City Warriors with a free trial. We are right nearby, less than 5 minutes from Lake Oswego, Tualitin, and Tigard. 

All the best on your Journey… 

Guro Paul Vunak, one of Dan Inosanto’s top students breaks down trapping range. This is an older clip, pre-dating the popularity of both Muay Thai and Gracie Jiu Jitsu in the states. It holds a ton of relevancy for street applications and is the direct curriculum in our Jeet Kune Do program (JKD)

Specifically the explanation of ranges and how to function between them is gold here. In fact, quite often the knowledge of these ranges elude the modern fighter. They kick inside of punching range, or try to grapple too far away. Our mentors impressed upon us long ago that to master the range game is one thing that sets apart and expert from a novice.

We are covering trapping this month in the JKD class at RCW. Thanks for checking out the clip, and for more on everything JKD check out River City Warriors right here in Tigard.

“Jiu-jitsu is personal efficiency to protect the weaker, which anyone can do. It is the force of leverage against brute force.”
