Lead hand Drill #1;  Stance: both in a (right foot lead throughout all drills), Partner delivers straight Vertical punch, you counter with a lead hand back of the hand parry, and follow with a return vertical punch back. your partner does the same flow back. This is the basic flow for both partners. You can practice striking to the back of the hand as it comes out at you. From what I hear this is one of Guro Dan's first drills that he teaches. To attack the weapon.

The Panantukan Jabbing Drills 

 

Drill #1 (basic drill)

You and your partner are facing each other the a left lead fighting stance. You will begin the drill be taking turns throwing jabs it each other. Begin by using a rear hand palm catch of the jab. Using a three count beat (1-2-3)

 

Drill #2 (footwork)

Begin moving around in a circle with this same (1-3) movement, then reverse the direction and go the other way with it. Begin to using a cross pattern step forward, step backward, step to right side, step to left side, Then begin on your triangle footwork, changing leads from left jab, to right jab. This is a very good way to get warmed-up for training.

 

Drill #3 (uppercut/hook)

With the same drill we will be adding an uppercut to the arm or deliver a hooking type blow to the bicep, Example: so you jab, your partner jabs, you jab and your partner hooks or uppercuts your arm. Then you begin the drill over your partner jabs, you jab, your patner jabs, and you hook or uppercut the arm. 

 

Drill #4 (cross)

Next add a high right cross, Example: your partner jabs, you jab, your partner jabs, you follow the jab with  a right  cross.

 

Drill #5 (split block)

This are just some of the drills within the Filipino art the Panantukan

 

Kali Gunting Concepts 

 

Distructions (guntings) to the arms:

 

1. Inside Gunting

2. Outside Gunting

3. Horizontal Gunting

4. Vertical Gunting

5. Fist to elbow gunting

 

The Inside gunting is delivered with either a backfist of hammerfist to the bicep area, or any strike with the hand to the inside of the arm as it is thrown at you.

 

The Outside gunting is delivered with the outer forearm bone or elbow, and using the same techniques as the inside gunting.

 

The Horizontal gunting is delivered at the arm as it is thrown at you, you use a scissors type of movement and strike the hand with the door knuckers, hammerfist, first two knuckles.

 

The Vertical gunting is delivered with an upward motion to the tricep with the first two knuckles of the fist.

 

The fist to elbow gunting is delivered by you guiding the punch into the bent elbow of your arm, it can be vertically or horizontally delivered

 

The follow ups for the guntingd are many but I will list a few;

 

1. Eye jabs with the left or right hand

2. Backfist

3. Elbows

4. Knees

5. Low line kicking

6. Sweeping

7. Throwing

 

Panantukan Fighting Tactics

 

1. Cutting and jamming; used against an opponents attack you will use hands, elbows, forearms, to jam at the root of the punch or kick. Being the dhoulders and hips or kness. Useful as set ups for takedowns for entries to leverage throws and sweeps.

 

2. Wedge traps; used against roundhouse blows, uppercuts or type kicks.

 

3. Scooping traps; snake move to circle block, and trap the limb. Snake meaning to circle around the limb, be it a punch or kick.

 

4. Elbow and knee traps; primarly used for roundhouse blows, and many times used with wedge traps.

 

5. Forearm and body traps; across chest, across midsection to hold or trap the limb like a vise or scissors.

 

6. Throwing; use angle, leverage, base, grab appendages hands, arms, head etc.

 

7. Angles; using horizontal, vertical, diagonal, angles will determine direction of throw, steps-using four stepping drill for your base. Step to outside of foot, on foot, inside foot, in front of foot. Use natural sweeping motions.

 

8. After limb is grabbed; use dropping, trapping, tripping, sweeping, flipping, lifting, scooping, throwing, stretching, striking, or any combination.

 

9. Size and style; a larger opponent is easier to control a smaller opponent. A smaller exponent needs to evade their larger opponent, using flowing skills to evade, to takedown. Takedowns must have a sense of clamness and awareness. If you can flinch you can block and react to an attack. Perception of your opponent’s moves will give you the timing and training will give you the counters. Filipino Arts requires this.

 

10. Perception; see opponent's actions extrapolate or evaluate your plan your attack by the angle of attack.

 

11. Follow ups; Strikes, throws or controlling techniques with footwork, hand placement, contact points. New knowledge perceived of angles, using base and leverage to counter your opponent.

 

12. Analyze opponent’s force and make a choice:

a. Control his momentum

b. Grab his arm or leg

c. Jam and counter strike

 

All of these concepts and principles are working for you if you train in them, it's not the techniques but how you apply the principles and concepts that make them work. You should develop a free flowing non-thinking mind. When you see the attack you just move like a shadow and counter.

 

Drilling is the key to developing any reaction, The more a skill is repeated the more firmly established it becomes. Proficiency is dependent upon repetition. There are many Panantukan drills here to learn and develop, use these principles and concepts and develop yourself.
