Body Motion & Cyclone Practice

Bahad Zubu Body Motion + Cyclone Practice

Whew  That worked o.k then.

Some notes on the vid:

Didn't put it on you-tube as it is not "polished", rehearsed and BZ top was in the wash heh heh. It was he first time I have put it all together like that but obviously the BZ curriculum gives you it piece by piece.

The first exercise is using the body-motion from Abierta-Serada to avoid the stick. Simple but fun! A big part of BZ for me is moving just enough so the attack doesn't reach you and then closing the gap as quickly as possible.

The 2nd we were just practicing the "Cyclone" movement with sword, knife and empty hand. We are not to worried about the combat "Application" as certain times it would have been more appropriate to disable the weapon / move in but we were trying to work on the flow and I was trying to get my damn feet moving in correlation with the rest of my body!

Anyway, hope you enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun and I look forward to doing it again as the "Cyclone" feels more natural now.

Feel free to ask any questions you want and I will do my best to answer them.

Hi.

We took / edited this video with the intention of putting it here on the forum for BZ members. They are two great drills and it is hoped we can all share what we are doing and how we are expressing BZ.

In the video we were both wearing flip-flops and I had an old t-shirt with my name across my back (a gift - honestly  _) So when I try to put videos on youtube I always try and select ones when both guys have BZ t-shirts on (or in GM Yulli's case at least a t-shirt on - but I see some of our brothers don't worry about this!!!!) and look the part.

The video was shared on facebook with other BZ members as well. So I'm not sure the extra benefit of sharing it on youtube is. People tend to go on there just to dis-respect other styles without taking the time to understand what they are doing or trying to do. Also, it's nice to have videos on this forum that are not on you-tube to get people coming here and hopefully some discussion going.

Cool, the reason I was asking was because I wanted to download it!

Is there any way for m to do this..?

Might help.

I looked around and Vimeo was meant to be one of the best alternatives to you-tube. I recommend it if people want to share what they've been working on and ask for feedback etc, etc as it was easy to embed the video into the forum.
