This personal approach is the preferred method of study. The training outline is taught as fast as you can process the information. Knife Fighting is an educated fighter’s territory; the more informed you are, the better your chances will be. Your own personal weapons trainer and hands-on practice partner teach you. You will be learning the training methodologies, and feeder skills of this energy based art from one of the world's finest instructors. Private classes let you enjoy the convenience of the location, frequency, and duration of your sessions.
WEEKLY CLASS
There are several class locations available, check the seminar and events schedule. The classes are for students of every level. Only persons with sincerity, dedication, and honest intention need apply.
JOIN A TRAINING GROUP
You can join one of the classes already operating in Pleasantville, NY, Whitestone, NY, New York City, NY, Upper Darby, PA and other locations to be announced. Qualified and certified instructors teach classes. Classes that are outside of driving distance usually host seminars, but still practice regularly and trainees are qualified to test for rank.
ATTEND SEMINARS AND CAMPS
Seminars and camps are now hosted all year long throughout the US by martial arts schools and private groups. We will also be hosting Gatherings (Sama-sama) every year. These are another way to gain knife-fighting skills.
HOST A SEMINAR
Hosting a seminar is easy because they can be arranged with just a handful of participants. Seminars can be held in garages, basements, backyards, campgrounds, parks, and MA schools - anywhere available. Driving to another state to train with a few guys in a garage for a day or two is not unusual, and when necessary, plane fares are quite inexpensive these days.
START YOUR OWN TRAINING GROUP
All you need is five or six persons who want to learn SAYOC KALI with you and we'll show you the rest! You decide how often SAYOC KALI will come to your location, you get your training, and then you teach the follow-up. While martial arts schools commonly opt for this method, a training group can be formed and hosted by anyone with no experience at all.
VIDEO CLASSES
Regardless of where you live, through videotapes and the Internet these classes are now available. The video classes are interactive and will be available to SAYOC KALI SILAK TRAINING ASSOCIATION “members only”.
