Eskrima, Arnis or Kali is a martial art from the Philippines. Like many martial arts, it has seen rapid expansion in many years, and like many of them, many systems have arisen. There is as yet no single predominant organization. Here is a list of Eskrima systems; although it is far from comprehensive, it will list many systems and describe a few. A collection of training weapons used in an Eskrima class. ... Arnis may refer to: an alternative name for Filipino Martial Arts, Eskrima, Kali, Garote, Estokada, ...

It is sometimes useful to make the distinction between "system" and "style". Normally, a system means a systematic arrangement of techniques, training drills, names, and sets of sparring rules designed for effective teaching. On the other hand, a style is essentially a way of doing each technique and of solving each problem. Style in this sense is largely personal, developed by each practitioner to suit their body, mind, and reflexes. Of course, most students copy the style of their teacher to some degree, and some teachers encourage very accurate copying of their style. Bruce Lee, Dan Inosanto and Leo Gaje make this distinction very carefully, focusing on developing an effective system while encouraging their students to develop an individual style. More traditional teachers may consider the precise details of style essential to reliable transmission of their art. A name is a label for a thing, person, place, product (as in a brand name), and even an idea or concept, normally used to distinguish one from another. ... Bruce Lee Jun Fan (Chinese: ; pinyin: ; November 27, 1940 – July 20, 1973) was an American-born Chinese martial artist, instructor, martial arts actor and action star widely regarded as one of the most influential and most famous martial artists of the 20th century. ... Dan Danny Inosanto (born July 24, 1936) is a famous Filipino American martial arts instructor from California who is perhaps best known for being both a teacher (FMA) and a student of Jeet Kune Do/Wing Chun to late martial artist Bruce Lee. ... Leo T. Gaje, Jr. ...

Most people do not make the distinction between "system" and "style" this precisely. The words are often used more-or-less interchangeably.

WHAT IS ARNIS ALL ABOUT?

Arnis de Mano or estocada the Philippines very own fighting art. Arnis was a forerunner of the bladed weapon called “kali” an ancient Malayan word, which means a bladed weapon, utilized as sword. Sometimes Arnis is called as kali, escrima, pang-or, pamalo, muton, baston or estocada. Arnis is a stick fighting of the Filipinos. It was derived from the English word “harness”. First, Spanish people called it Arnes and a Tagalog orthographic translator called it Arnis.

Arnis has three phases: bladed weapon, stick and empty hand. Bladed weapon such as: kampilan, utak balisong, pinsawali, susuwat, kambantuli, janap, banjat, gayang, panabas, bankon, kalis, gunong and puñal.

In Arnis there are three forms of play: Solo baston (single sticks), the sword and dagger (espada y daga) and the criss-cross fashion (double sticks).

Single stick or solo baston is the major fighting system of Arnis. Solo baston is not limited to stick alone it applies to bladed weapons. The system further can be extended to other ordinary objects such as umbrella, pen, walking sticks, comb, magazines and newspaper that are good examples of weapons. The solo baston system has traditional, modern techniques and applications. These techniques are the basic systems that develop skills in catching, grabbing, pulling and pushing, disarming, locking, striking and blockings techniques.

Arnis y Daga is a simplified form of traditional Espada y daga or sword and dagger technique. The weapons used a short stick or a knife and a rattan stick. In practicing the Arnis y Daga the proponent learns to combine long and short-range tactics. Without the weapons the concept of Arnis y Daga is best expressed in long-short combinations such as an upper cut and a straight punch.

Double stick or Doble Baston is another major form of play in Arnis system. Which is sometimes called Sinawali. Swinging the cane in a criss-cross movement perform s double stick. The movement of the Doble baston are essentially artistic but can also be used for self-defense purposes. The Sinawali is an intrinsic part of Arnis practice, which requires the use of two sticks.

MANO-MANO

Mano-Mano is the Filipino art of Hand-to-Hand combats. The art embodies all the techniques applied to stick fighting techniques, except the practitioner uses the different limbs of his body as striking tools, in lieu of the weapons. The technique movements and rhythm in Mano-Mano are similar to those of Arnis with slight deviations. Mano-Mano is a system that combines effective defensive and counter offensive tactics from all martial arts available in the world. Although, generally called a street fighting art. Mano-Mano prides itself of the simple and easy but debilitating techniques it posses. Mano-Mano is the empty hand of stick fighting (Arnis) developed centuries ago by the Filipino Fighters. Arnis is the “Mother” of Mano-Mano an original and native Filipino Art. It has gained popular adherents from all countries have been trying to preserve the genius of its forms that it desired to be left unscathed by the influence of other arts. The perspective gave rise to questioning the validity of its claims to defend the practitioner when he has no “rattan stick” with him. The constant sneer from other arts made way to the Art of Mano-Mano which is the art of the cane is also the art of the hand in absence of a stick the hand to hand can function as replacement. Mano-Mano techniques and movements are derived from the use of Arnis, escrima or kali: which is literally the extension of our hands.

SINAWALI

The term Sinawali is derived from the word “Sawali” meaning to weave. Sawali is the material used by early Filipinos in building the nipa hut or Bahay Kubo. The sawalis are interwoven into each other, hence the criss-cross pattern adapted by the sport. The classical Sinawali has only three techniques namely: Single Sinawali, Double Sinawali and redonda.

THE MODERNIZATION OF SINAWALI

Punong Lakan Garitony C. Nicolas has interpolated much new variation to existing Sinawali, which he named Modern Sinawali. This Modern Sinawali has three hundred and sixty three (363) different variations among which are the Peripheral Sinawali, Double X Sinawali, Single X Sinawali, etc. Because of such contribution Punong Lakan was regarded as the Father of Modern Sinawali. In Modern Sinawali one should develop his speed, timing, agility, harmony and power. The Sinawali improves the footwork, body movements and reflexes which is essential in Arnis training. Thus, the Sinawali serves as an important preliminary exercise to the advance techniques of solo baston, Doble baston and Arnis y daga leading to Modern Mano-Mano.

The Modern Sinawali can apply one stick against two sticks, one against two attackers, bangkaw against stick, bangkaw against gilingan, gilingan against arnis, mano-mano etc. The practitioner can combine two or more different Modern Sinawali.

He published his 4 books:

Modern Sinawali (Arnis Nicolas System) gives all the training process that practitioner needs to know and learn because of the various criss cross movements of the hand. Learning such SINAWALI will surely improve and develop the Arnisador's footwork, agility, speed, timing, coordination, instinct, control, skills and proper distance. The Modern Sinawali is not limited to double sticks only, it could also be done with one stick against two sticks, stick against Bankaw, one against two attackers, Bankaw against Gilingan, mano-mano and etc...

In this system the practitioner can combine any two or more different kind of Sinawali. The Modern Sinawali has 363 different kind of Sinawali that Punong Lakan develops and incorporates on the art and philosophy of stick fighting-ARNIS.

The author includes in this book the art of continuous locking, the priniple of counter to counter freestyle disarming and the art of counter to counter Mano-Mano Locking.

The Principles of a Good Arnisador - this book discuss the principles of Arnis Nicolas System (ARNIS) and its Art, including the development of stick fighting - the Martial Arts World.

The author provides broad-based and integrative techniques of self-defense in response with the goals and philosophy of this significant Art of Fighting.

The "Punong Lakan" realizes these principles thru the years of his experiences, dedication, vocation and commitment in teaching and sharing his knowledge and skills in stick fighting.

The Official ANYO of MAMFMA - is all about the form done by each student from beginner to black belt using the three forms of play of Arnis: Single Stick, Two Sticks and a combination of Arnis stick and a shorter one which represents the espada y daga system. His main interest here is to share the stylish yet effective Anyo of Modern Arnis Mano-Mano which develops the mental and physical set ups. Learning such form will increase the body and mind coordination and it helps a lot the student to memorize and familiarize the techniques they are learning.

Sistemang Pang-Oran - this was the first book that Punong Lakan was published year 2000. The sistemang pang-oran is a full contact stick fighting (Arnis Kickboxing system - ARKIBOS) that played by the Modern Arnis Mano-Mano Filipino Martial Arts practitioner founded by Punong Lakan Garitony Nicolas and Co-Founder by Grandmaster Jonathan Makiling Abaya of the Philippine Jendo Association and Philippine Full-Contact Self-Defense Federation. The word Pang-Oran comes from the Northern part of the Philippines, which means paluan in Filipino and stick fighting in English.

The Sistemang Pang-Oran involves the striking of Arnis, disarming, punching and kicking techniques (for amateur rule) and sweeping and throwing (for professional rule). Pang-oran was developed for the love of a certain Filipino martial Art that is ARNIS. It came from the heart of a real disciple of arnis. Punong Lakan stresses that without his students he can not develop the Pang-Oran system and for watching and observing different tournament like the Full Contact, karate, Arnis, tae-kwon-do etc... He is just like a composer who needs inspiration to be able to compose a song.

PUNONG LAKAN MOTTO "If an eagle dies, he leaves his feather... If a man dies his memories remain..."

PRINCIPLES OF A GOOD ARNISADOR

1. The real Arnisador holds firmly to his stick until the day he dies.

2. The Arnisador and sticks are one.

3. The Art of the hand is the art of the cane.

4. If someone throws rice grains to a skilled Arnisador not even a single grain can hit him.

5. The match and the candle represent an authentic disciple of Arnis.

6. The Art of Arnis is like wind; you can feel it but not necessarily see it.

7. Minimum effort maximum effect.
