??? re Greg Alland tapes...

[greentea]

Greg Alland I have some of our Old tapes and I learned quite a lot. So here I am waiting a long time. Wheres the New DVDs /Tapes?

[lorenzodamarith]

hello,

greetings to topdog!! WOOF!! this thread has been kinda hard to take. are things really that bad in the systems? is this what it has all come to?

wow.

a smart guy once said "when in doubt, challenge them (not threaten). either they will, or they won't. in either case, you will know what they are made of".

the dogbrothers seem to know this instinctively/implicitly. the tuhons also seem to know who they are and represent themselves and the systems very well.

hopefully, this thread is a fluke and the community at large is interested in training and not..... this.

apologies for the negative bent here, but this is kinda depressing. can't we all just go to the gathering and "get along?" hahahahahahahaha!!

thanks.

woof tv

interesting old shows quite different in style. Perhaps you can do it again Master Greg

[tigrtclaw]

About your shows MasterKaliSilat just watched 6 of them and enjoyed the information and the action. Even though they are from 18 years ago you were ahead of the times back then. I have a new respect for what you have accomplished.

[MasterKaliSilat]

It never ceases to amaze me of how many people know all about the DVDs I've upgraded to, have never met me, never worked with me, and yet know all about me. Well, I have 18 such DVDs yet only 6 of them are mine. If you haven't met or worked with me or even some of my well known students that have been with me for more then 10 and 20 years, why not see for your self. Also know that I guarantee my DVDs, purchase F / G and see the real Pekiti Tirsia System, given to us my Grand Tuhon Gaje, Jr., original, Greg

Greg Alland Television

This is back again? LOL Thanks Duke for posting and How old are these? Those Shows are really interesting and obvious that they go back a ways. Greg Alland does give an interesting interview. I actually haven't seen anything quite like those before. I am quite impressed with Greg Alland after watching the shows and the way he put them together. Is he going to come out with anything new? If you do masterkalisilat I would be intertested to see them speaking for myself thumbs up

Greg Allands old tv show

Found some video tapes That feature Kali Silat. Although from years ago there is some nice action and Greg has interesting teaching.

[MasterKaliSilat]

Thank you, I'll keep you posted when I have new DVDs, regards, Greg

[greentea]

Hopefully the main points made on this thread have been effective and helpful. I also would very much be interested to see any new dvds that Master Greg Alland is producing. I have been in the martial arts world for 25 years and have attended many seminars in that time. As a teacher in the school systems for many years, I recognize the high quality instruction that Master Greg Alland presents. Please let us know of your new accomplishments Master Greg Alland. D.T.

wow... I can't believe this thread has lasted as long as it had.
I don't know ANY of those associated( or those formerly ) with the man this thread is all about. I have nothing to say about all the other "drama" that got added on.

Greg Alland, now that you're around to read this post.....and with all due respect, I truly hope your videos now are much much better than what they appeared to be than what you had marketed many years back. I only had one thing to say about only ONE videotape I had viewed and viewed AGAIN 3 more times because I could not believe what I was watching. I thought the quality was crap. The techniques(64 attacks) were legitimate enough but something about it was way "off-key".

I'm no authority on Pekiti Tirsia kali so I have no ground to stand on in accordance to the art in question, but the average street-fighter could tell what's worth a damn from what they notice.
Experience teaches each individual who has the intelligence to learn from it. Once applied, out comes some valuable wisdom.

[QUOTE] I even thought it was funny that some of the members of Greg’s organization were sending me E-mails (See Sticks and Stones thread) trying to trash me.
I knew of your return to Missouri because someone asked if they should train with you or not. QUOTE]

Yeah quite convenient
you have been talking a lot about Greg Alland behind his Back. There are others who know this. You were confronted one time at your seminar for trying to pull a stunt and you cowardly backed down. Then you bravely post thing's about others in these forums. When confronted You snivel and whine a lot.

Perhaps you should ask Mike, I'm not even sure he's still practicing, last time I was in Missouri working, I received a stealth mailer with his name on it and one word, naaayh.

Well I guess no one can leave well enough alone. I thought there was nothing more to say and that we could all go on our own way. I even thought it was funny that some of the members of Greg’s organization were sending me E-mails (See Sticks and Stones thread) trying to trash me.

I belive Greg has continued on his way and I have gone mine. What happened is in the past and no longer part of my future.

Greg, I never sent any mail to you “Stealth” or otherwise. I knew of your return to Missouri because someone asked if they should train with you or not. I told them they should go and see for themselves on what you have to offer. Even in this post, I state the skill you have and willingness to share it.

What is between Greg and I is just that, between us. I have moved on and I am sure he has as well.

Just as a note, I still practice. I just do it on my terms.

The Saga continues

I just came on and read this entire thread. This is my viewpoint as a newcomer. This entire matter is about the man Greg Alland, also known as MASTERKALISILAT and unravels almost like a soap opera, if you will. It has Five Stars and is one of the best, or rather most interesting Threads I have ever read.

The Thread started out about the matter of KaliSilat Master, Greg Alland who has instructional video tapes on the market. Then there were things brought up discussed about Greg Allands whole credability and Skill level. Some are very impressed with Master Alland and stand with him and some are not impressed. (seems it's mostly those who haven't met him are not impressed, but those who have Are seemingly very impressed with his teaching and skill level)

There are a few squabbles between Kaliace and MAMike which bantered back and forth and then someone else comes on and challenges Greg Alland and Someone named "Dustin Etan" who has a website dedicated to Master Greg Alland and who states that Gregs fighting skills are high ( and who also, by the way looks like a professional wrestler) A few other reputed Gurus and Senseis come on with deep insights and some other interesting points have been made. One Guru, Dave Gould, (who seems very serious and formidable) puts the challenger in his place and the guy backs down. This Guru Dave Gould is very credible and is a big supporter of Greg Alland also. This say's a whole lot.

MasterKaliSilat suddenly appears and reprimands Mike Olive and then gives us his report with deep intentions.

So now it seems as if there needs to be a new chapter started to continue this interesting read. A lot of time is passed and This whole issue hasn't been cleared up

So I have a few questions for MASTERKALISILAT, Greg Alland. (Who seems to answer quite forward and upfront.) I will only ask a few, but I actually have many, like about the challenges and stuff in the past with other instructors and his standing with other masters

MasterKaliSilat:What exactly happened between you and guru Mike Olive also known as KALIACE?

Seems like he has really dismissed your credabiity as a qualified Master from the posts he had placed. But, he has pictures of you still posted on his website when you conducted seminars for him.(?) So what is your opinion of Mile Olive as an instructor and "guru"? And why the "bad blood" between you two now?-
