How to learn Escrima
"Something that I should have long ago"
How I did it: I signed up for a beginners' course of kombatan and trained once or twice a week for about four months. But that's of course just the beginning. Having the yellow belt means that I know now the very basics and am capable of learning more. This is going to be a hobby for years to come.
Lessons & tips: Just believe in yourself and practice a lot. It may seem complicated and difficult at first, especially if you haven't practiced using your worse hand, but sooner or later you will be wondering how easy it actually is. :-)
Resources: Various martial arts websites, a pair of rattan sticks and lots of enthusiasm.
