The martial arts staff is a weapon that has been used for millennia by fighters worldwide. Human beings have learned to utilize the staff effectively to repel attacks from enemies. The names change depending on the particular art. But whether it is a Filipino Sibat, Indonesian Tongkat, Indian Pandeeran, Ethiopian Donga, Japanese Bo, Chinese Bang, or English Quarter Staff, the practitioners of old had one thing in common: they knew how to fight with the weapon!
In today’s martial arts world, the staff is still popular but the training is primarily for show. Manipulation skills and two-person forms are by far the most common modes of training. But wouldn’t you like to know how to fight effectively with the staff? Just like the warriors of old? That’s where the Battlefield Kali Staff program comes in.
The Battlefield Kali Staff program is a highly organized course that efficiently develops high level, functional staff fighting skills in a safe and fun manner. There are no fantasy techniques, just practical, proven methods presented in a precise teaching progression. Burton Richardson’s foundational message is:
“Knowledge is not power. The ability to apply your knowledge under pressure is true power.”
Learning techniques and maneuvers with the staff is knowledge, but it doesn’t mean you can apply that knowledge against someone who’s actually fighting back against you. Becoming a skillful staff fighter is what the Battlefield Kali Staff program is all about.
Battlefield Kali is a weapons-based fighting method that focuses on pressure-tested techniques, tactics, and training methods. Created by original Dog Brother, Jeet Kune Do luminary, and Black Belt Magazine hall of famer Burton “Lucky Dog” Richardson, the basic premise is that the art must work against a fully resisting partner or opponent. Not just in theory, but through practical application. That means trying to apply the art against a partner who is trying his or her best to stifle your every move. Could you learn to become an effective basketball player without ever playing the game? No. Shooting around is one thing, but dealing with someone who is guarding you and trying to steal the ball is another altogether. In Battlefield Kali Staff, the object is to become good at playing the game.
But isn’t “playing the game” dangerous? It can be if you confuse safe sparring with perilous fighting. Please remember that sparring is not an all out affair like fighting. In a fight, you try to knock out or debilitate the opponent. In sparring you do your very best to play the game without any injuries whatsoever. The sparring environment should be playful, not severe. Therefore, we use protective equipment, padded sticks, and a friendly attitude so that EVERYBODY can play the game and enjoy the process of practical skill. It is great fun and a fascinating study.
The Battlefield Kali Staff program is divided into four levels. Level 1 introduces the absolute basics so that anyone, regardless of experience, can focus on the brilliant basics that are the foundation of functional application. Each successive level builds on the previous level with isolated training so that the student can focus on developing particular aspects of staff fighting. The fourth level is where we put it all together.
This same methodology has proven extremely effective in the Battlefield Kali Single Stick and Battlefield Kali Single Knife programs. Students around the globe have developed into highly skilled fighters just by following the techniques, tactics, and training methods prescribed in the course.
Battlefield Kali Staff is an enriching practice for people of all ages which enhances not only martial abilities, but life skills as well. The lessons learned through becoming an expert staff fighter translate directly into being more effective in all areas of life.
Order Battlefield Kali Staff now and get started! You will find it fun, fascinating, and rewarding.

"My Knife Defense For The Street program is the result of two decades of pressure testing. Drawing from my nearly 40-year martial arts background in Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do, the Filipino martial arts (Original Dog Brother, “Lucky Dog”), MMA, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Indonesian Silat, wrestling, Krav Maga, and other arts...If you are interested in functional knife defense, I highly suggest you invest in this course."

Imagine you’re about to board a flight that will take you to a dream destination. Just before you walk down the jetway you glance at the aircraft and are surprised to see a radically different shape. The wings are very short and the cabin is slanted. It looks pleasingly exotic.
The captain greets you as you are about to step onto the plane. You comment about the interesting shape of the vessel and ask how it feels in the air. The captain shakes his head and says, “I don’t know. But all the computer models say that it will fly faster and smoother than normal jets.”
What is your next question? Mine would be, “Haven’t you ever flown it?” The captain says “No one has actually flown it. This is its maiden flight. But I really trust the people that came up with the design. It should work very well.”
I don’t know about you, but I’m not getting on that plane! I wouldn’t have faith in an aircraft until it has been thoroughly tested. But too many people have faith in knife defense techniques, which could mean the difference between life and death in an actual attack, that have not been pressure tested.
Pressure testing is when you put on protective gear, use a relatively safe training knife, and let your partner come at you all-out. 100% resistance, intensity, and intent. That’s what you are going to face in most knife attacks so that is how we pressure test. We just use protection and a padded knife to keep it as safe as possible. Let’s be clear that demonstrating or drilling with a cooperative feeder is not pressure testing. It’s not even testing. Testing means adding non-choreographed resistance. Pressure testing is when that resistance and intensity are at or near 100%.
My Knife Defense For The Street program is the result of two decades of pressure testing. Drawing from my nearly 40-year martial arts background in Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do, the Filipino martial arts (Original Dog Brother, “Lucky Dog”), MMA, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Indonesian Silat, wrestling, Krav Maga, and other arts, I decided to employ my science education (I majored in Biological Sciences at USC) to methodically pressure test a wide array of knife defense scenarios. I used the same approach that I did when I worked as a scientist in the Harbor UCLA medical center laboratories. I created a hypothesis (a theoretical technique that I thought would yield good results) then took that theory into the laboratory of hard sparring to see how it held up. We regularly geared up and went all out. My instructions to my partner were always the same – “stab me as many times as you can!”
Most techniques crumbled under the pressure of real resistance. Some gave a favorable result. And some of those, after years of sparring, were shown to have holes. So I made adjustments and continued the testing and adjusting process until we got good results. After two decades of testing, we have closed up most of the holes.
Let me be clear, it is never easy to deal with a committed knife attacker. You are at a huge disadvantage. But, these methods give you a real fighting chance so that you may be able to go home without debilitating injuries.
People sometimes ask me why I don’t teach all the spectacular knife defense methods that I have learned over the years. Here's my answer: I bring more of a professional fight coach philosophy to self-defense training. Just as when I train an athlete for a UFC fight, my aim is to prepare folks for combat. We keep the training as fun as possible, but I’m not there to entertain. My job is to help you win a fight.
As far as knife street self-defense goes, I figure that at some time, one of my students will actually have to use his or her skills in a self-defense situation. That means I have a great responsibility to give them the most functional training possible. I want to be sure that I prepare them for an actual life-and-death situation instead of just dazzling them with flashy techniques that only work against a cooperative feeder. Since I teach a large number of people across the globe, the likelihood that a student will face a blade is much higher. I decided on this approach a long time ago, and I’m glad I did.
To date, I have had three students actually use these empty hand methods against real knife attacks. A soldier in Afghanistan, an immigration officer in Australia, and a police officer in New York city were all able to defend themselves while incurring minimal damage. I’m very thankful that it worked out for them. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I had prioritized looking cool over being effective.
The program will help you develop functional self-defense. Whether you are in law-enforcement, security, the military, or really want to protect yourself and your loved ones, this course will prove very valuable for your training.

Here’s what Burton has to say:
Fighting is reading an opponent’s intentions, then responding efficiently to neutralize his attacks. It is not going through a memorized routine.
If you are training for functional fighting skill, your mitt drills should feel similar to sparring or fighting. You should be moving, defending against punches, kicks, tackles, grabs, and, when training for self-defense, weapons. You don’t have time to think in a real situation so you must train your subconscious to deal with anything, WHILE striking at full speed, power, and intensity. This is what high-level mitt work should develop.
What elements should be included? How should they be fed? And how do you modify the functional sport mitt training when focusing on self-defense? This is what Focus Mitts For Sport And Street Self Defense is all about."
- 16 specific, essential concepts that must be included in your mitts training to optimize the fighter’s skill development.
- Plus many other examples of important points to enhance skill faster than ever in the kickboxing, clinch, and ground ranges.
- Plus scenario training, multiple opponent drills, self-defense specific targeting, and weapons recognition during the For The Street section.
If you want to make your focus mitt rounds more fun, more exciting, and much more effective, then utilize this course. Let me know if you have any questions at all.
Aloha!
