all right so today I got a little series of drills for you to start practicing working on getting in Your Arsenal on your double sticks to swords and if you want to trade these out for training bolos that works as well all right so our first one right here we're going to start off in this open chamber position this is one of the most powerful positions that we can uh fight in in double sticks or double swords is our open position right here so from here we're going to strike down our angle one then we're gonna come back up on our angle four so we're basically riding on the same line we're going to bring this over and then we're going to cut on what's called a reverse angle two we call that the revise then we're going to do the same thing on the left hand side strike down the one up the four and then over vase or that reverse two so again one four reverse two one four reverse two now you're not necessarily going to use it like you know in this particular manner but we want to start training these movements and start building this uh coordination up let's go ahead and do a couple reps together nice and easy nice and slow right here as we're looking out into this beautiful Mist beautiful fog so from here right hand first down the one up to four reverse that number two down the one on the left hand up the four and then the revise let's do it two more times together right hand left hand right hand and left hand okay the second drill is identical it's very very close instead of going diagonal on that four we're gonna go horizontal so we're going to strike down the number one then we're going to come across a low horizontal about like midline horizontal and then that revise same thing on the left hand come down the one across that horizontal and then the reverse okay so right here so you're going to notice that there's three movements per side six movements here so that's the only difference between the first two drills is one's diagonal on the four and the second one is horizontal on the four okay let's go and take a look at the third drill now this one's got a little extra movement we're going to be striking on all four diagonal strikes let's check it out starting with the right hand we're going to go into what's called a circular one this time coming up the angle three then we're going to come up the angle four and then hit that revise that reverse two again same thing on the left side striking that circular one coming up the angle three the angle four and then revise that reverse number two right there and so we have one two three four strikes on the third drill one two three and four right there so right hand and left hand just take it nice and slow in the beginning okay let's give it another uh Viewpoint right here right there and right there let's do a couple of these together nice and slow from here starting with the right hand we got our circular one coming up the angle three up the angle four and revise same thing on the left hand side circular one up the angle three up the angle four and revise again right hand one three four and revise left hand one three four and revise it doesn't matter which foot is forward right now let's do another one with the left foot forward okay we're just building that coordination up right now learning these movements learning these patterns okay spend a little bit of time with each one of these three drills then let's go ahead and put them together into a little mini kind of carenzo type of flow [Music] thank you [Music] thank you [Music] [Laughter] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign that you're going to notice as you're working these these three drills as you're starting to build speed as you're starting to increase power there's really little to no openings for your opponent to get you practice these drills get them down Master them and then we'll come back at another Point throughout this year and I'll show you some of the applications with these exact
