FMS weekend Sulsa firearms training (December 2011)

Hello everyone,
Despite having to work on Saturday, we managed to have an awesome FMS weekend. As I mentioned, I had to work so I missed our tournament in Hollister...

:(
But, as soon as I got off, I endured the rain storms to jam do to Hollister to hook up with our FMS family. We reunited at Master Schleeter's home for some good food, drinks, UFC fights, and fun. The usual FMS fun...

:)
I got a chance to hear all about the action I missed during the day. My only consolation was that I was very pleased to see our group handled the whole event in a professional manner, and our friends and family came out to support in all ways possible. Special thanks to GM Rubie Navarro, Sensei Eric Reed, Master Linda Pulido and all our extended family for their fantastic support and showing the love. Also, to ALL the FMS family that came and made our Annual FMS Faultline Warrior Classic a tremendous success. The action was happening and I got the full 411.

On Sunday, we divided the FMS black belt camp into two parts. After getting up in the morning and watching some football (Raiders vs Vikings) with our breakfast (thank you Master King), and enjoying some friendly ribbing between Master King (Traider... I mean Raider fan) and Master Schleeter (Viking fan), we started the training. First stop was to the dojang for a couple hours of training in 3rd dan material. We focused on FMS Jang Chang Sul (FMS Cane) and 3rd dan sword material. We managed to film some of the training, then it was off to the range for some FMS Sulsa firearms training. We were very lucky to have a couple of Master Schleeter's students who are active duty officers hook us up with the range and training. Officer Ray Celone is an ex-San Jose SWAT team member, and he gave us a day full of awesome training. We combined a basic FMS firearms 101 class for the novices, and SWAT tactical shoot and move drills for the more experienced shooters. We did holster drills, movement drills, tactical reloads, shoot and move reloading, partner drills and so much more. Man what a blast (pun intended...).

After a full day of shooting, it was all about cleaning and tuning up our guns and get some hot food in our belly's We found a great little Mexican spot (the best one are usually little hole in the walls). We had some great tacos, menudo, carne asada, and albondigas too. Yum, yum...

What a fantastic time. Boy, I tell you, I really needed it...
Thanks again to everyone, and keep training hard.

Looking forward to hooking up again next month for our FMS Christmas party. Until then, everyone have a great Thanksgiving and I'll be seeing you.
With much love and brotherhood,
Kuk Sa Nim

ps... did I mention that the 49ers won again today..... 9-1... we are on a roll!!!

FMS Black Belt Testings in Hollister - Califórnia

Hello Dear students and friends
Here I make reference to the last black belt testing, conducted in Hollister, CA, in the Academy of our brother Master Patrick Schleter.
Our brothers from FMS Russia, came to U.S. for four weeks, and stay in the house of KSN De Alba ....training day and night:)
Without doubt it was a historical testing, because beyond our Russian brothers, Master Davud Suleymanov, Inst. Ilias Beapev had done the test for 1st Dan FMS, finally our SBN brother Terry King, made his examination to Kwan Jang Nim / 4 th Dan Master of FMS ... a degree very rare to get on our FMS family...only for a few Knights.
Congratulations to all the candidates, for your effort and hard work.
With much Love and Brotherhood
