Form
Single or Double Stick, Blades, Empty Hands, or Swinging your Cap, it must be an original expression of who you are - warrior, artist, teacher, student, dancer, healer, (insert your expression here) - your spirit. It must be believable, and it must flow.

Sparring
After the student has made 10,000 strikes they should be ready to experience various forms of sparring. This, more than all the other drills, should be your chance to say, Can you stop me! Can I stop you! No matter what!

Final Thoughts
In the beginning phase, the student should come to understand the elements of Kali: Footwork, Body Mechanics, Sinawali, and Spirituality. The student should learn the two techniques: the one that works and the one that doesnt. The student should learn that the most important qualities are: balance, sensitivity, awareness, trickery, speed, power, positioning, and timing. The student should learn that the limbs, the hands, the feet and the head are all weapons that can be used in the same manner as the stick or blade. Regular class attendance should produce these results in under a year.
