Indigenous Ability

  We shall run through three disciplines to interpret anger and marvel at the commonalities in the Indigenous Warrior tradition and modern science findings. And from there draw conclusions on how to interpret and deal with anger in the self, interpersonal relationships, online interactions, and, at the dire end of the scale…aggressive physical anger. Let us begin with our Indigenous Warrior Wisdom. “ Good and evil cannot dwell together in the same heart, so a good man ought not to go into evil company .”—Wisdom of the Delaware Warrior ·         I find it continually fascinating [and endlessly useful] that the indigenous wisdom always [always] begins with the SELF. ·         Our default “modern” wisdom is “ Look at what is wrong with them!” ·         “ Why are they behaving so poorly?” The Indigenous Warrior maxims begins by aiming the cognitive arrow at the self...

  When it comes to Frontier Combat, be it called rough ’n’ tumble, scufflin’, boombattle, or any of the myriad gorgeous regional terms for the “all-in” unarmed and armed combat of the early Americas, I am often asked for recommended texts, or a reading list of the “ Top Ten Rough n Tumble Works .” Well, the answer is either very unsatisfying or far richer than one could imagine. In the early Americas there was no Codex Wallerstein , no Comprehension of Destreza by de la Vega, no tome on 12-Angles, no Spanish Circle theoretics, no set in stone [or ink on typeset] dispensation from on high. The American Experiment [and Experience] was like no other in an unsettled land. A dispersal of Continental sources across a broad land that asked new integrated skill sets of intrepid peoples. There were no specialists—no weavers in this village and a cooper for our barrel and storage needs, no mercers, no tailors, no this or that tradesman/craftsman to go to. The New Land asked for ...

Let us talk Alley Grappling, let us talk vicious striking. Meanness so refined as to make a Muay Thai Plum Blossom clinch enthusiast jump for joy. Let us talk an Old School Rough n Tumble tool with a staggeringly simple but, oh, so varied approach. A tool to charm strikers, street scufflers, with enough control wiliness to make the pure grapplers salivate to the sounds of bodies slappin’ the pavement symphonic resonance. Without giving away the elegance of this tactical cow, let us sample a little milk. Sphere 2: The Striking Clinch This is an Upright Position that assumes cohesion—that is non-striking body contact from which strikes can and may be launched. Clinches are ideal for takedowns but…no takedown is addressed in the Striking Clinch Sphere. The Striking Clinch can be over-under, Head-Tie, Collar and Elbow, Biceps Rides, Outside-2-on-1, or any other variation. Here, we emphasize and focus 100% of our attention on The Head Clinch and beaucoup ways to… ·     ...
