You know, the more I see the JDP stuff, the more I like it. I really am
lovin' the long stick in JDP, mainly. I study Capoeira (a brizilian
martial art) which incorprates short stick/club play in it. The Doyle
style bata stuff fits like a glove for the medium stick/cane. And I
really think the long stick stuff would incorprate well into my
capoeira, as well. See, Capoeira is a art that is always in motion.
there are no static postions at all, your always moving and I think
that would translate well into the JDP stick play (from what I've seen
of it), as it seems to always be in motion as well. I like how, to
generate more power, you slide along the lenght of the stick which
would probley help whith the long stick in closer quarters as well. I
was wandering if someone could elaborate a bit on JDP as a whole, as I
don't know much about it. Love the clips, keep 'em coming.--Ellis
