Note the difference in their stances. Master Lema maintains a firm grounded stance with which to deliver hard and fast strikes while master Ilustrisimo focuses on evasive shifting footwork and targeted strikes. Different philosophies, but deadly all the same.

this man needs a movie like how ip man got 4. he actually fought thw japanese unlike ip man

I started out from MK, and now am interested in Ilustrisimo bladeworks. This vid’s a perfect inspiration for me. Two masters, different styles. Salamat po.

So nice to see two pillars SGM of different art sharing techniques.

From what I know, this video was taken in Manila. Mang Ben Lema and Tatang Illustrisimo relocated to Manila in their later years. It is in here that they mingled together, and also their groups. It is also important to note that Mang Ben came from Western Visayas and Tatang was born in Cebu, the "heart" of Central Visayas (though he traveled and grew up to and in a lot of places). Any claims of both masters meeting when they were young are unfounded. Some old-school practitioners of LSAI and KI who were lucky enough to "reach a time" when both were still alive (like Prof. Bot Jocano) would attest that both groups and teachers were very close to each other. Even today, I would say, some LSAI groups and teachers maintain a close relationship with KI groups and teachers. Edit: I would also suggest watching this. Its an account of one of Tatang's oldest surviving students. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oIKe2rmcaK6XlbA.html

Tresured recollection videos ot tatang Illustrisimo

even in friendly interaction they were apprehensive when crossing sticks/blades with Tatang .

The Ilistrisimo, style is simple and easy to incorporate into most any style. It will surely help defend against low line attacks, as will the pike! Although, the cross step is much more flexible than the pike. Trust

Thugs- " Hey look at those old men walking with canes, we should rob them!". Whap!Whap! Thugs- Zzzzzzzzzzzz

Nice! I love seeing those effective movements and footwork broken down so well. Btw, not to be an ass, but it's nice to NOT see a bunch of sweaty overweight white dudes standing around in the background.

I love that they’re all laughing about the cigarette in Luna Lema’s mouth as they’re playing

Does anyone have a clear picture of that wall?

Nah, Tatang Ilustrisimo will get Mang Ben schooled. Know their backgrounds first.
