Hello Bob Orlando.

I recently purchased your "Fighting Arts of Indonesia" video and feel I must thank you.

I am a police officer in the UK and a defensive tactics instructor in my force.  I also teach ninjutsu in my area to civilians.  I found your video extremely instructive in an art I have been persuing for some time, but no avail.  For some reason silat is taking it's time getting to us in the north of England.

Anyway, your drills near the end of the tape make good sense and are well received by the guys--they make striking and vertical grappling intertwine in a way I've been trying to teach for a good while.  My aim is to get some of your drills into our official training.

I will continue to use the tapes information.  It's too good to pass up..

Thanks a great deal
