Pekiti -Tirsia Kali N Footwork
I have decided a long time ago that stick training in our group should only be with hockey gloves and helmets, using real sticks I prefer using the very heavy Black Mango wood or composite sticks, the JuWe Bolo, Tomahawks, Pinute sword to warm up with various footwork patterns. I prefer that everyone hits the target intended at full speed and intent with padded sticks and protective gear, instead very light rattan sticks and imagining the intended targets and hit the stick or air instead. The reasoning behind this is, the you fight as you train buzzword, better to have practiced 10 times hitting a hand in opposition, than hitting a stick and imagining hitting a hand 100 times with no opposition.

Silat Footwork & Balance disruption
Once upon a time, far back in our evolutionary history, we had tails to help us maintain our balance when running about with each other up in the trees. As we have now filled a slightly different, ground dwelling ecological niche, we have lost the need for tails as a means of maintaining balance although there are still remnants of this particular period in our evolutionary past visible in the elongated form of our coccyx (which incidentally can make an interesting target in a combative sense), and even in some of the Pharyngeal stage in our embryonic development, where we in fact grow a tail for a short time (and gills, and a covering of hair.)
This aside, despite the fact that our vestibular system is highly advanced and is usually pretty good at allowing us to maintain our balance, there are still some inevitable flaws of our bipedal arrangement that we can easily exploit as martial artists in order to better our position in a combative situation.
The two principles in this video provide a very brief introduction into methods for exploitation of the natural flaws in our balance.
