We at Elite Martial Arts would like to wish everyone a happy and safe Labor Day holiday. As a reminder, we will be open for the holiday and will maintain our regular business hours.
We know that many of you will be with friends and family, so we don’t expect a large turnout for classes, but those of you that can come in will get more individual attention.
Once again, have a great holiday.

As most of you know, we promote cross training in our Academy. One of the styles that we teach is Silat. Here is a short Youtube video of Guro Dan teaching Silat. Many of you will recognize and be able to name the moves that you see in this video.

This is a video that was posted on Facebook. It is of Guro Dan Inosanto giving an interview to Willie B. Laureano. It takes a historical look at the 1st and 2nd Filipino Infantry Battalions.
The original description from Willie B. Laureano is listed below.
The video is now posted on youtube.

This video was shared by a few of my facebook friends, and I thought you would get a kick out of it. Often there is a fine line between life and death and between success and failure. This video definitely shows that line pretty clearly.

I just saw this clip, and I thought it was a great way to demonstrate the lessons we so often cover in class. First let me start by saying that the guy that got knocked out is an extremely good martial artist. As always, when fatigue sets in, people make mistakes. In this case, as in so many others, his hands dropped and left him open. Secondly, he was trying for a knee, when he was in punching range. His opponent saw the opening and countered before he stepped into the appropriate range.
The force of the punch combined with his forward momentum, made the punch devastating. As the announcer said, that punch would’ve knocked out anyone.
