Kelly Worden Chi Sao Variations

Описание: Datu Kelly Worden demonstrating locking and control variations off of a Chi-sao entrance. Kelly Worden has produced a wealth of material for people interested in the Filipino Martial Arts over the years. He connected traditional Arnis and Kuntao to non-traditional Gung Fu and JKD, and more recently, is producing Tactical training modules for Worden Defense Systems. He's one of the more interesting and and colourful figures in the whole of martial arts, not just the FMA's. Part master, part philosopher, part standup comic. I've been lucky enough to have the chance to train with him and other super talented instructors in NSI over the last 6 years. This particular clip is from Water and Steel Camp 2007, the full DVD set is available at www.kellyworden.com.

"The sacrifice Bruce made to free the people has been clouded by reinstated traditional beliefs that somehow a JKD certificate makes a better fighter (read: not practitioner)--more efficient, more capable of extracting the functional aspects of any fighting art. JKD certificates are about control and agenda. Getting certified in JKD is almost a slap in the face, especially if the path is dictated. There are thousands of renegade JKD fighters worldwide, all following the path intended: the one they personally choose. Today's renegade prefers to include iron and steel (firearms and edged weapons) and believes in the only person that may actually be able to save his ass... himself. What happened to Bruce Lee's quotes about blind reverence? I rarely depend on Bruce Lee's quotes to define freedom... I took Bruce's advice to seek and speak my own truth. It's our world now; don't we owe it to ourselves to follow the path and honestly breathe freedom?" -Kelly S Worden
