Younglings in Training








The second Waya-an Self-defense session at Don Bosco was a revelation, with at least four students identified as possible candidates for advance training. The rest, with a little more perseverance can also reach their full potential. 

We have started situation simulation drills that require the students to use their basic defense tools -- the slap, palm-heel strike, in-step kick, side kick, elbow and knee strikes.
Critical to the drills is to develop "flow" which we call "agos" in order to execute "buhos" or the "shock and awe" aspect of counter-attack. Hopefully, the students' will develop "fighting spirit" or "unos" to give them efficiency and determination to survive any threat situation.
