Fight Quest!

Hey Everyone!

I know many of you have heard of "Fight Quest", a canceled cable program.

The basic idea of the show is that two Americans go around the world and learn a martial art for 5 days and then partake in a contest with one of the champions.

These shows (there are many like this) are hokey and pretty damn silly. But they do have SOME legit value, and I find them entertaining...

This one I'm linking today is on Kali. It's a stick fighting art that you can find mostly in the pacific rim.

If you choose to watch it, look for these things:
1. Footwork: Who is moving forward and who is moving backward
2. Exercises: Why all the goofy movements and strange objects? Why not use a perfectly round, perfectly balanced bar to lift?
3. Can you spot any drills from class?

Enjoy the video!
