Summer Term (Jul-Sep 2010)
Focus: Adapting to Multiple Attackers
Pekiti-Tirsia System of Kali assumes multiple attackers - dueling
one-on-one is a romantic notion and often what martial training
begins with. As Grand Tuhon Gaje has said, "When the assailant
steps out on the jungle path in ahead of you, turn and attack the
other one coming from behind". Replace "jungle path"
with "city street" and this wisdom prevails.
This term will focus on adapting the trained response to account
for multiple attackers. This will include the application of base
technologies in the contradas and counter-hitting, double stick
flows, and finishers that limit your exposure to the secondary attack.
