Kadena De Mano translates to "chain of hand" and is a combination of empty-hand and knife/dagger techniques. It covers basic and advanced blocks (or counters), basic and advanced hand and knife drills as well as permuted locks from the basic/advanced drills. Lock/flow/trap practice drills are stressed as well as subject control through the use of Vital Points (Pressure Sensitive Nerves). This is a sample of the KDM "Basics" DVD in the series of Inayan Eskrima videos.
