The Following Drill is from an interview with Grandmaster Rene A. Capangpangan
by: Ned R. Nepangue

    This series of ten photos is designed to show the basic way that Baraw Sugbo trainees learn the movements. Note: that one practioner is armed with a knife {Baraw} while the other is unarmed.
    The teaching is one - on - one, with the Master or Guro starting with the knife and attacking the defenser or student. Roles may then be reversed. In this process several things are apparent: The student learns to overcome fear of knife attacks, learns that grips and disarms do not always work, and sensitivity, while the knife wielder also learns how to retain his knife against disarms and the like.
    Obviously, none of these sequences should be attempted without sufficient training under an expert and these photos are shown only for informational purposes, not actual methods of knife fighting or defense.

Gripping and grasping are very important as will be readily seen. this drill is done in a " standing position " or a " stationary position " withou much footwork. the body will have some movement and waist movement may be done. Both hands are utilized by both practitioners to nullify movements and to effect certain releases as seen when the entire sequence is practiced and repeated.
