before you. The Mano (the hand) still is practiced to this day among family members in the Philippines.

Pasurutan
Pasurutan (Combination) – Fan Series There are 6 sets of different Pasurutan. What is Pasurutan means? It means
combination techniques that are a continuous flow of offensive attacks. Any offensive strikes can be also used
as a striking block. These exercises are designed to help develop power, and speed with continuous blows of
attacks. The Fan series emphasizes using one “fan” strike with other angles of attack. The single-stick
pasurutan can be substituted with a blade.

Blocking Umbrella Drills – These series are designed to understand the most important 5 angles of attack from
any particular style but using our numbering systems of angles of attack from number 1 to number 5. There are
two sides to this training. The attacker and the defender. Using only a series of continuous attacks the
defender also uses a continuous flow of blocks against 1 to 5-angle strikes in different sequence order.

(from 12 basic strikes #7 to #12) using a striking block with simple basic counter moves. These series can also
be used against an unarmed attacker – empty hand vs. empty hand.
Using what we call a striking block first to enter then into countering using 3 strikes to the body. The flow

Sinalapid
Sinalapid (Sinawali) These are intricate x-weave pattern designs derived from clothing, basket weaving, and
mats.
This is the double shoulder chamber on each shoulder unlike others Sinalapid that are chambers one on the
shoulder and one under the armpit. There are many facets to this Sinalapid (Sinawali) training. There are
crossed and non-crossed drills that also can easily be translated to empty-hand training. The Sinalapid training
with double sticks, knives or short swords is an important phase to go into the empty hand training.
The level of dexterity and properly chambered and execution of each strike are emphasized to develop good habits
so the techniques that are executed are clear and precise.
