[scientist501]

Very nice!

[Eskaywhy419]

I can see the movements better if i had the knife in the other hand cus i was gonna say your hip down is always open for a sweep. teaching but yeah with a knife and escrima combo i can see that working. congrats

[punongbayan4492]

[serratodo123]

[ricomanism]

nc tutorial! i bought arnis stick like yesterday at the market and already learning some moves

[squash2097]

[jerdudeguy]

that double strike is called a florete

[gizmomon1234567]

does any 1 know a good escrima studio in misslula

[Armando316]

That footwork looks to me very much like the type of footwork we see Manny Pacquiao using in the ring. Maybe I'm wrong but I get that very impression watching this then watching a Pacquiao fight,

[yakont]

@Armando316 arnis footwork has some similarity to boxing e.g. triangles... this dude is much better than that trey dude from the christiancantdomartialarts school on expertvillage at least!

[sgtjoe2008]

nice job, you become a great arnis master someday....

@coastgirlor

So, should someone come at you with a bat rather than a Kali stick

[arjybarjy]

"Coastgirlor", thankyou for giving us a very accurate exhibition of what ignorance looks like. Well done, you've got talent.

[seanr7250]

@coastgirlor you have problems.

[joey349harry]

a redonda with a twist of abaniko (Corto and Largo Strike) very nice

[joey349harry]

The "redonda"!!! nice

[rickskicks1967]

good flow with steps! I will practice this and make it mine. Thank you for sharing.

[naignik]

this is some kind of kata

[crazzyincombat]

No. This is a basic striking drill called Hulu used to develop muscle memory in Filipino martial arts. Such as Doce Pares :)

[KyDLS]

this is eskrima... under Doce Pares system, (which is now a multi-style system).. Doce Pares is one of the main roots of eskrima!!... as proof (logo on his shirt).. research doce pares for more info on escrima.. youtube has alot, search for Discovery Channel Eskrima, or way of the warrior eskrima for a history about it!!

[N1veKKev1N]

for the ones of you that think this is called escrima, it's not, it's arnis de cadena, escrima sticks are what's mainly used.

[apOweyn]

That's not accurate. Doce Pares does typically use the term "eskrima" rather than "arnis." Though both are generic terms for Filipino martial arts. The full term is "arnis de mano," not "arnis de cadena" typically. "Kadena" means "chain." You see it used in "kadena de mano" for instance. The sticks are called "baston" or "olisi." Not "eskrima stick."

[GaolisVideoLog]

@N1veKKev1N Ahm... you know, where I come from, it doesn't matter if you say, Arnis or Escrima or Kali or whatever. They're the same thing.

[phillyphil050888]

@N1veKKev1N no sir escrima, arnis, and kali are the same just different names from different parts in the filipines islands

[momentarnis]

good idea...but the frist hit is very bad....he you to trains more!

[Sinbad683]

I believe this is of the Doce Pares style, cuz he's wearing the shirt.

[moeoeoeh]

Not only the shirt :-) it looks like a variation of the San Miguel Form.

[plus24seven]

yah its a martial arts!.

[Angelox205]

Is escrima a martial art

[EmbodiedDespair]

Yes, and an impressive one in the hands of an experienced practitioner!

Hell, even somebody who's only been doing it for a year or two can make it look good and still be effective.

[ThugalogPlaya]

not bad! good vid!
