The 13th to 16th of June were some very interesting, educational, and wonderful days for me. Four days of training and assisting. I got the opportunity to not just learn new skills and refine current ones, but also the opportunity to learn some of the relationship between the pedagogy and the material. Something I’m monumentally grateful to Tuhon for.
To witness him teaching two distinct groups - the SPEAR team and our civilian martial arts practitioners -, compare the material and presentation, and to be able to have discussions with him between lessons helped me a great deal in refining my own practice and teaching.
The act of teaching the material is one thing. To be trusted to teach it under the name of an organisation that is respected worldwide is another. It is a responsibility I am honoured to have been trusted with - and also a responsibility I will continuously strive to do right by.
I count myself as profoundly lucky for the many opportunities that have come my way to train with the best in this art and to have found the wonderful support of people around me. A huge thank you to the brave men of SPEAR Force I got to know during the 2-day BONOWI Camlock Basic Instructor Course and TRICOM Advanced Expandable Baton Instructor Course, and for the great location.
A huge thanks to the participants of Tuhon Jared’s public seminar as well. I have a deep love for Pekiti-Tirsia and to be able to share the art I love with others is a wonderful, fulfilling, and heartwarming experience. Much love to all of you!
