Here's an oldie I haven't shared much, but definitely good for building adaptability especially when both players are moving and the feeder starts randomizing the angles.
This JOT (Just One Thing) is a beginner's drill from Modern Arnis, designed to quickly develop flow, timing, distance, deflections, and accuracy. PG Tye Botting quickly walks through beginning single and double stick versions and shows you basic ways to mix it up and get more out of this classic drill.
Modern Arnis JOTs are very short videos about a single idea, move, tweak, or principle. Let us know if there is anything you would like to see in a JOT.
