Welcome to another GO! episode, my name is Lilia.
If you don't know it you'll have to see the first episode
to understand why we are so friendly and everything we do seems to be funny.
Today I'm particularly happy because from the central of the school they've sent me the official pant.
Thank you master Neldo Sacomani, he allows me to do this,
thanks to him that taught Geardo, today I'm able to learn a bit of all of this... Gera!
Come in on this side because I'm calling you here, don't do like last time!
Oh, OK! *LAUGHS* I'm here.
So... What are we learning today?
Today will be doing some walking, steps, transitions and hands coordination.
Oh! Ehmmm...
Usually my hands hurt when...
You know I have years of doing martial arts... *BOTH LAUGH*
And the problem I always have is that my skin hurts.
I've been using bandages, but you've seen how I bandage myself wrong.
Would you teach me to do it so it's more realistic?
Oh, crap, I'm not in the mood for this...
L: Come on! Come on! G: But well, ehhhhh... L: Bandage me!
OK, OK, we'll see how to use bandages... *LAUGHS*
G: That's OK, cross in front of the camera... L: It's my show, I can do what I like!
*LAUGHS* That's true...
Well, first the reason of the bandages, they are used to contain hand's bones because when you hit
the bones open and in long term this gives you osteoarthritis.
Anyway, we are doing this to take care of her skin, not to hit, we're not punching anyone today luckily.
I'm not tightening it so much because it's just to protect your forearm that's what hurts you, right?
And it loosens every 5 seconds when I do it myself so...
I know how to do it for Hollywood, but not for real life *LAUGHS*
What you do is just about the looks, just about the looks...
What did you do? In the beginning you weren't tightening it, you started doing it later.
Because the important part is that it contains the wrist, not the hand so much, this part is done.
It feels cushioned, rigid, but it doesn't hurt. Doesn't cut my blood stream.
Of course not, it shouldn't do that...
That's done, it's a little improvised, I'm sorry, I wasn't in the mood to explain this...
But it looks cool!
L: Thank you, thank you. G: You're welcome...
Warm-Up
Sorry, sorry! I want you to see that she reaches her foot now!
L: Well, it works... G: Yes, it works.
Well, how many classes I've been doing this by now? Ten more or less?
Yes, more or less...
You don't see every class, just the ones we shoot, but I'm training 2 times a week.
Change side.
How many push-ups can you do?
I told you three...
G: In a row? L: Yes...
It's three times what you could last time so...
One... Two... Three...
Four... Five... SIx...
Seven... Eight...
G: Oh! Only two more! Only two! A:Yes...
Nine... Last one, last one!... TEN!
G: Yaaaaaaayyyy! L: Yeah!
This hurts...
The bandages give me powers!
L: And the pant! G: And the pant, yeah...
Luckily I've waxed! *LAUGH*
Warm-up punches.
Punching someone get's me really tired...
Displacement.
Ok, know we are going to work steps and displacements.
OK? Always starting from Pek Ma to feel the pressure when the other advances or you advance
and in that way win skill in depth-perception.
You mean, get used to react when someone attacks me without doing THIS?
Right, without turning into a ball, without chickening out.
OK, let's start from Pek Ma. You already know it.
OK, why this step is a simple displacement with our front foot forward?
Because the idea of this step is invading her guard.
If she's static, stay there, don't move, if she's static when I walk...
I'm already inside, I can move her knee and win the middle. OK?
Stand with other guard, a lateral one, like in box. Like that.
I'm already in, I win. I defend here, she falls, it's really annoying.
Even being here if I want I can make her fall.
It's just an idea, later we'll advance on it.
The same the other way, she's learning to pressure and to go back when I do it.
From here, when I push she feels my pressure and goes back.
Don't jump.
When I push she feels my pressure and goes back with her back foot.
Why is it important to move backwards with your back foot?
When she pushes, if I use my front leg... Push... Push, push.
If I back with my front foot, my feet will be together and if she keeps going I fall.
Just push, I have my feet together...
L:But I wanted to show my Judo knowledge G: I have no... *LAUGHS*
That was a very ugly O-Soto-Gari. *LAUGH*
I was saying, if the pushes and I back with my front foot
my feet join and if she pushes more I fall.
Because I'm left with a base with no stability.
But if when she advances with her front foot I follow her mirrored with my back foot.
I'm left in base, I still have a base.
Is what I showed you about the flexed legs when you push. (First episode)
Now when you advance come with a strong pressure.
See? We're still at this distance.
Do exactly the same.
I fall.
It's that, is to be stabilized.
This step like this, is a short, fast step to win distance. Just that.
Application
Well, now that you've seen the plication of the step,
we understand it's "FUNCTIONABILITY", we're going to...
It's what?
Functionability.
I think that word doesn't exist, but OK, let's say it's right... I give it to you...
It's in the dictionary...
We'll look it up and we'll see that it's in the dictionary!
I think it's "FUNCTIONALITY".
Me too...
OK, when you show me it's not in the dictionary I'll apologize for being a stupid illiterate...
Anyway! *BOTH LAUGH*
Let's start with a movement to break the guard using this step.
This is a very typical Ving Tsun movement, it's very famous because Bruce Lee liked it a lot.
And he does it a lot in his movies too.
It's called Pak Da.
What an inspiration, right?
Yes.
Well, we've already had a tribute in the first episode and we'll keep doing it.
Yes, in any moment it's going to appear... I don't know... Here?
A little bit lower...
G: Lower? L: There?
Not so low.
There!
No! Ehh, humm...
Well, it doesn't matter, a clip will appear showing what's Pak Da.
This, what you're watching right here!
G: This is what Lilia is going to learn. L: Yes, this, this is what we're talking about.
OK, this exercise's idea is breaking your opponent's guard. OK?
Using this step and the pressure.
Put in guard so I show it slow.
I want to hit her face's side.
I can't just go forward because her triangle parries me. OK?
I can't lower her hand because she repels me with her punch. She still has a hand there.
So what I have to do is, with a Pak Sao move her guard, make an opening and get to her face.
It's just that.
As I don't reach her face because I'm not yet in her guard, I use the step we practiced.
To reach her face.
And he did.
I didn't punch her, I didn't punch her.
Yes you did!
That's a lie. Don't say that, people will say I get here drunk and punch you. *LAUGHS*
You always get here drunk! He has such a strong wine smell!
Everything a lie. *TALKS AS DRUNK*
Well, as today we have no help... Crap...
Ehmmmm... Y offer myself to use the helmet again,
so Lilia can practice the application as real as we can...
And see how the technique evolves.
I hate this part, I hate it...
This has been all for today, I assure you my arms are REALLY hurting.
Today I think there wasn't a sexy moment at all...
Except you consider sexy my dance with the Ving Tsun pants. But well...
