Sifu Chuck Furtado in eskrima Tournament

In keeping with the tradition of Jeet Kune Do, Blazing Sun incorporates Filipino eskrima/Doce Pares into an effctive, combat efficient fighting style that works in real world situations. The stick movements of Filipino eskrima and Doce Pares easily translate into empty hand and bladed weapon styles of fighting. The Blazing sun classes emphasize this when training with any type of weapon. Timing, distance, movements, etc.., can all be adapted to fighting with different weapons, weapons of varying length, or no weapon at all.

Filipino eskrima/Doce Pares combine balance, footwork, timing, distance, into a graceful form of fighting that is both effective and efficient in its application. Using strikes, defensive or offensive movements, lines and angles are practiced to provide useful reference points from which to determine the best approach in a combat situation. Angles of attack, deflections, traps , disarms, and passes are employed in varying settings and differing ranges to demonstrate the importance and understanding of those ranges and the transitions between them.

Students learn how to implement these movements and then apply that knowledge to the many variations that come with different lengths and types of weapons.Eventually, a student of Blazing Sun demonstrates an ability to move fluidly with both hands and feet moving independantly of eachother, making a devastating opponent ready for any situation.
