Strawdog vs the Blademaster, Tuhon Leo T. Gaje

[strawdog]

No Mas! No Mas!

Grand Tuhon Leo T. Gaje is 70 years old. Here is a short clip of him sparring with me. We sparred for about 25 minutes. Most of it looking pretty much like this small clip. Actually the other clips make me look much worse as he kept whipping my sun burned skin with the rattan stick.

It was super hot that day. Tuhon Gaje is THE MAN! When people are dropping like flies from the heat, here's the old master on the field taking on all comers. I would like to be just like him someday.

That was cool, I like how he controlled it and did not smack you on the head.

Thanks for sharing that, Meynard. I honestly have a hard time believing he is 70 having met him last year. Amazing, and something to aspire towards.

He's a great one ... i wish more people taught his style in NY .. Tom Bisio doesn't teach FMA anymore ...

[Felipe Bidó]

Very nice. I'd love to see more.

[strawdog]

Here's another clip... No MAS! BTW, the rule of the sparring was to hit only the left shoulder. He wasn't hitting that hard it's just that the sunburn made it feel a lot worst.

Inspirational straw, thanks for posting. It's cool to see him still and waiting to pounce like a tiger.
