Last time i was in LI one of Shihan's students went over belt techniques with us and it was amazing and similar to the video you posted. He and i were speaking afterwards and I showed him some belt stuff i had learned from a kali instructor i know and we had a blast. We both now wear belts that slip off easily... Next time you are doing a single stick kali routine replace the stick with a belt that has a good buckle on it...this would not be a good time to forget about that live hand movement ...thanks Matt and Master Dwire Great post Matt.

One of these years I'll make it to the Saratoga festival, but I always seem to be up there on the wrong weekend. I like the 'Team' approach they are taking this time. I'll be at Northeastern for the last session of a class that weekend. Sadly the meeting was rescheduled from early Feb. Not yet…but you know it’s on my ‘to do’ list now.

I will have to say the only reason I could improve it was because of my lack of knowledge about the weapon in the first place. I had different training on the belt, but never the snaps that I have learned recently -- Break any boards with your belt yet Matt? Jesse http://www.saratogafestival.com/schedule.php
