Happy Sunday gents, hope you’ve all had a good week. It’s time for our Weekly Wins post. This is where we share something positive from the week—big or small. It could be something in martial arts, training, fitness, or life in general. I’ll kick things off. My win this week is that I’ve been pretty consistent with my extra gym training. Nothing fancy, just showing up and putting the work in. I’m definitely feeling it in the legs and chest though! Another focus for me has been hydration. Because I’m training more, I’ve been trying to hit 64oz of water a day. The downside… I’m pissing like a racehorse 🤦‍♂️ but I suppose that’s the price of staying hydrated. Your turn 👇 What’s been your win this week?

I’d love to get a feel for everyone’s experience level in the community so I can create content that helps you most 👊 I know we’ve got a real mix here: • Complete beginners who are keen to learn • Experienced martial artists new to Eskrima • People with a few years of Eskrima under their belt • Veterans with 20+ years of training Where do you fit in right now? Drop a comment below and let me know: 1️⃣ Total beginner 2️⃣ Martial arts experience but new to Eskrima 3️⃣ Eskrima for a few years 4️⃣ 10+ years experience Bonus question: What’s ONE thing you most want to improve right now? (flow, basics, sparring, footwork, drills, teaching, etc.) This will really help me tailor future videos, drills, and courses to the community 🙏

You’re trapped in a building. A horde of zombies is closing in. This table of antique weapons is all you’ve got. ⚔️ You can only pick ONE. There’s no right answer… Only survival 😈 👇 Drop your weapon choice in the comments and tell us WHY Bonus points if you explain your strategy (speed, power, range, intimidation, etc). Would love to see what everyone goes for!

I just want to take a moment to wish every single one of you a Merry Christmas and a strong start to the New Year. This community only began a few months ago, but already you can feel it.. the Tribe is forming, the energy is there, and the foundations are solid. That doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because of the people who show up, engage, train, ask questions, and support one another. 2026 is about consistency. Consistent training. Consistent learning. Consistent effort — even on the days motivation is low. My aim is to do more focused, regular work for this community and help every one of you grow, not just as martial artists, but as disciplined, resilient individuals. Rest up, enjoy time with family, recharge the body and mind. When the New Year comes, we forge ahead together — stronger, sharper, and harder to break. Proud of the Tribe. Excited for what’s coming. 💪🔥

@Gareth Drury and all of you Amazing Eskrima Kali folks ~ Wishing Everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year!
