I attended a Doug Marcaida seminar in upper state NY a few years back. It was amazing. All of his assistant instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful. I hope to attend another one someday.

Excellent demonstration here of the versatility of Sinawali patterns, and how they are used in actual application even when using a single weapon. Doug Marcaida is always the best at showing the actual reasoning behind the flow drills.

Mr. Marcaida, do you ever make your way to Minnesota for seminars? I'd consider it a privilege to see and learn from you in person.

set up multiple cameras and you can probably use your phones then edit it together with commentary (You can also draw on the video to point out areas of interest).
