Arnis is a composite art in that it was influenced by numerous systems and cultures in its development. The Philippine Islands are located along important trade routes, and as a result their inhabitants were exposed to the martial arts of Chinese and Malaysian cultures, among others. As Filipinos frequently had to defend themselves against attackers […]

Arnis places emphasis on using and defending against weapons. In the practical world, a knife or machete is regarded as a dangerous weapon that is easily obtained and used in conflicts.   Therefore, Arnis practitioners familiarise themselves against knife and machete attacks. Unfortunately, this important aspect is not emphasized in other martial arts.

I have to say that todays training was off the charts!! Great job everyone!
