Good close quarter techniques here, and great defensive reversals. If you enjoy Kali but want something more street applicable (I am a cop), then I would also highly recommend Krav Maga.
hey i play judo and takekwondo i newley heard bout this style of martial arts its rly gr8 but we dont have it in here so i got to learn it on u tube how many time u think i well replay this videos untell i learn :D
if you look carefully the martial arts that jackie chan used some of it are filipino martial arts and if you watch UFC at 1:02 that is the famous lock right and its the filipino who inveted it
@jmattdai - its panantukan. not panuntukan. do your research bro. nakikinig mo lang ata sa mga kanto yung panuntukan eh kaya kala mo yun na yun. :) peace
@jmattdai Baka dahil lang sa pagkakaiba sa ating dayalekto o wika kaya naging panantukan, "bro". Ngunit Tagalog ako e, kaya ang tamang baybay ay "suntok", hindi "santok", o kung anupaman. Kung kaya, ang tamang baybay para sa akin ay Panuntukan (suntok), hindi Panantukan (santok? ewan). :)
I've just b egun my fma and penckgat silat training at 'old dragon' kung fu san soo studio in oceanside,ca and can honestly say it is truly real time streetfighting combat arts.wether it's empty or w/sticks,knives or sarongs,it's quick and efficient.
What an amazing MA..My knowledge of your arts is rudimentary at best..I'm coming to the Phillippines later this year where I hope to receive practical instruction..Thankyou for the vid..Jason(New Zealand)
@alyek321 hmm.. i'll do some digging but i'm not surprised that jkd has fma principles. bruce worked w/ dan inosanto to develop jkd. as for the take-downs and locks you mentioned you're right, they do look like filipino kuntao and a little bit of sliat but some of them also resemble japanese jujitsu a little bit.
I really wouldn't put music in martial arts videos because it sometimes can distract the mind, and people wouldnt really be able to see the full meaning and way of the technique that a martial artist is using, but anyway great vid.
i would like to learn "panantukan" Filipino boxing, been researching for a while, but i live in Canada and am not of Filipino decent and cant to find any schools or teachers.
I have a lot of respect for this martial art. It's history dates back when the tribal men fended the Spanish off from there island many many decades ago. And if it was enough to flat out obliterate the conquistadors into retreating, it must be bad ass.
I am not from the Phillipines, but after watching this video, I would love to learn this art. I am a black belt in Okinawan Karate, which is a great style. I have been obsessed with Bruce Lee's style, Jeet Kune Do, which borrows heavily from many of the techniques in this video. Awesome!
damn wish they had a gym for this in the bahamas would really help my fundamentals for how i fight but i still dont like how i am always mixing striking with arm locks and grappling it bothers me is this bad or good? Or I am just over dramtizing the situation
Great technique! Smooth and deadly. Just the way the martial arts were intended to be. If anybody could tell me the name of the song used it would be much appreciated.

ever wonder y a lot of professional boxing coaches wonder y or how manny pacman move so fast?, manny mixes filipino martial arts and professional boxing, check out his foot work, it's similar from arnis skrima etc. and also check his lateral movements, it's from knife fighting techniques from filipinos' MA pacmans history came from a dark street life survival fighting...
actually many of us Filipinos now this MA system,,, but since life in the philippines is hard they cant spare some time learning this.... all of their time are devoted to work... so never always think about many of us Filipinos never knew this MA exists
The knife defense and attack of the art is something I might want to learn in the future. I probably would pass on the empty hand techniques.--They look too fancy for me to use against a skilled and un-cooperating opponent. I would like to focus on learning more direct attacks.
it's a shame that a majority of our brothers and sisters are ignorant of this art w/c is ours.. they'd rather take up foreign arts like tae kwon do or karate when they could take up fma, a system bred here in our homeland meant for glorious war and self-defense.. a unique art that teaches adaptability, cunning and respect.. i hope that in the future more pinoys will take an interest to our own martial art..
@halleljk which is a shame.. it's not their fault for learning what is available but it's still unfortunate that a lot of pinoys aren't interested in our own fighting system..
@lavatun yea it is and when som1 sees this vid and hes like real old hes gonna regret that all hes life being young ....and he did not learn fma or even new about it.......that just heartache man.........
well in all honesty probably not a lot of fillo's know this actually exists, not to mention there arnt too many places to learn. Dont put people down for not knowing.
@neoknux009 i know.. and you're right, there aren't a lot of places to learn, ya gotta look for them w/ other people who have actually trained at these places.. it's still a relatively secretive art in the philippines.. still, it would feel good to see our kababayans learn.. :D
@lavatun I like your patriotism and i want to learn this art but i cannot find this here in the philippines so i end up learning from masters of other arts like capoeira, muay thai, tai chi chuan, karate, taekwondo and boxing. Drop me a message if you know anyone in the philippines are still teaching in the philippines and not overseas and i would gladly be their student.
P.S. Kali is not for me. Empty hands are what suit me best...
@blakwingz the way we train in fma is different. we start off w/ weapons first then progress to smaller & smaller weapons then finally to empty hands. but it depends on what style of fma you want to train. i was trained in dumaguete, negros oriental and our master taught us in a way that emphasizes the relation between armed and unarmed combat. ex: we train in sticks then knife then palmspike then empty hands then back to stick but w/ different movements. it's hard to explain w/o demonstrating.
@lavatun Iam is college here in the US with a young lady who is from the Phillipines. I have studied Pitiki Tirsia previously and loved it until my instructor moved ......the young lady I mentioned had no idea that the phillipines even HAD indegionous martial arts. She was born and raised in the Phillipines and didnt leave until she was 20.
@kensai1968 that's just sad for me. this martial art is more known to foreigners than to pinoys who were born and grew up here in the philippines. i know it's not their fault but it's still a shame.
@Lemuel117 that's good. :D ever noticed that for some reason it's easy to learn but hard to perfect even the basics? not to mention it's unnecessarily brutal.
@lavatun yeah I have noticed that, I want to learn this martial arts really bad like for example if some random person picked a fight with me and if I knew this martial art they are going to wish they never messed with me.
@Lemuel117 my master asked me and my friend why we wanted to learn. we told him for self-defense and it was true but he warned us that if he finds out that we used what we learned to pick fights he'll banish us from his training house. i've never used what i learned to defend myself so far and personally i hope it stays that way but i still practice to keep myself sharp.
@lavatun, i doubt that, i believe most filipinos know about their ma but i agree that it was as not popular as karate or tae kwon do but is now gaining popularity. fma's name also differs and depends on which part of PI you are. in luzon, fma is known as arnis, in visayas it is escrima and in mindanao it is kali. being ignorant and preferring another are not the same. during marcos and cory's time, arnis was integrated in physical education in all colleges and universities in the philippines.
You're actually fortunate you still have your MAs. My people lost our MAs when the white man came and raped the minds of my ancestors with Christian propaganda. The white evangelists changed everything so that even our martial dances have become a source of ridicule and jest. Few people practice them anymore and even fewer know what the moves really mean. I'd say you're lucky because you can make a serious difference in your country.
My father's ancestors were from Tonga, a country that had a maritime empire in the S. Pacific. We have Asian MAs now like ITF & WTF tkd, judo, soobahkdo and sumo but the native arts are all but dead. One dance, Soke, is all about using two sticks against the staff but is a dance reserved for kids. To see adults performing it warrants personal & public ridicule so it almost never happens.
@AintNoSuperiorStyle interesting.. by the way you described it, it has similarities to FMA stick work.. i'll do some digging on this.. why not try to propagate this martial art?..
The soke works in a 1on 1, 2 on 2, & 1 on 4 pattern initially. Then, to accommodate positioning, a dancer moves parallel to the opposite side along the rows while exchanging blows with the others. Obviously, the longer the line, the more the practice. However, the younger generation have no idea that this dance teaches stick fighting & many of the dance teachers haven't realized it yet either. In short, it sucks.
@lavatun Those moves like most other Filipino arts are integrated with Japanese or Chinese arts. You can see a lot of linear Karate and circular kungfu there with some juijitsu judo throws and locks. The only original Filipino Arts that has unique moves totally different from other arts was also called Eskrima but it was an older version. It was demonstrated by one of the Original Doce Paris in Cebu. Unfortunately newer Eskrima burried those techniques with integration from foriegn arts.
@padukamahasari yes, very true. it's very hard to find fma w/ just that. fma. most of modern fma's moves now have been supplimented w/ other martial arts moves. doesn't necessarily make them less efficient and effective but it does make them somewhat "un-filipino"
@pezilla123 true.. :D you gotta admit though, most martial arts are sneakier than others. take wing chun for example. "sticky hands" will give any martial art a hard time if done by a competent wing chun fighter. i think the equivalent of sticky hands we have in arnis/eskrima/kali is palit-palit.
@pezilla123 cool.. :D brutally direct and uncompromising, muay thai. sticky hands from wing chun is like a chess game involving parries, feints and blocks that lead your opponent constantly guessing about what you're gonna do next at in-your-face close range. can't really explain in full detail coz i don't practice wing chun though i've seen it in action. :D i think it's better if you watch a vid about wing chun's sticky hands.
Another hidden gem exclusive to the Philippines that most of us kababayans dont even know exists. Not meaning to offend the guys here (or any non-filipino watching), they did great, but are we letting people like them take advantage of this beautiful thing, like how foreigners control Filipinos in Makati? Let's own this field, just like how Koreans own Taekwondo and how the Japanese own Karate.
As a half filipino *other half russian* who has lived in both America and the Philippines, people need to chill out about the racist jokes. At least foreigners take an interest in FMA just give them some brownie points there, and people that hate/ are being racist against filipinos about their fighting *two names for you* batista and manny pacquiao, don't tell us we suck until you faced the best of us.
@policeluigi lol... we all have instinct to fight... but the only difference is how we fight... some know ordinary street fight skills, or kali or FMA, etc... I do FMA and i have gun...
Truly awesome. I've come from European Traditional WC background and started learning this art, its brilliant, and you chaps just did it a world of justice.
beautiful... but if you want to make it better, you must remove your shoes and upper garments, do it outside, in the soil - feel the earth and become part of it.
It is good but too showy... I could understand being like this if you are doing forms, but if you actually train to fight like you are in a movie that is not good
@MrLouieG i beg 2 differ, there are still those who are dedicated to FMA such as me and my peers, though it is disappointing there are some who would rather learn other arts, but that is their decision and not a soul in this would is entitled to criticize their lifestyle, the best we can do is encourage others in learning our martial art
@policeluigi yeh!, if you go to europe you will get your ass kicked and so as in asia,speccially in the philippines.BUT!the only difference is that, asia has ass kicken ,head banging,bone crashing,balls smashing MARTIAL ARTS!...hope you remember that.
i am a filipino and a practitioner of filipino martial arts at the same time... therefore as a mixed martial artist, i know the limitations of our art.. its a copy from all sorts of art.. although i am ashamed to tell you, its not even a perfect copy...
this is the Philippine martial arts and its called eskrima people who practice eskrima is called eskrimadors, you know they should put a filipino in teken 7
@harrygats i wouldn't say "imperfect copies" of other martial arts.. it is true that all forms of fma are descended from malaysian, chinese and japanese martial arts but along the way its development they evolved into something different.. this form of martial art has been tested and proven to be effective since the olden days, days before the time of lapu-lapu. it's an old art, not as old as other more well-known martial arts but there is a reason why other countries use our system. . it works.
yea fuckwit iam actually im number 1 in Australia for Muay Thai, Kickboxing and im only 16 n i verse 20 yr olds so fuck off buddy dont try n talk me down u low life cunt
hhaha fuck ur funny i have Respect for all fighters even if there not good, thats what its all about learning, respecting, control and self descpline as a fighter! i can tell you right now i know im not the best theres no such thing as the best fighter trust me i've had my times when i have lost my fights n bouts but i dont mind coz i respect fighters that work their arse off training to be a good fighter and win a fight or bout so dont talk to me as if im up myself
Number 1 in Australia? I seriously doubt that. And by seriously, I mean no way in hell. What's your name? Number 1 in what organization? What notable awards have you gotten?
@Zombiebloodfeast Ya i seriously doubt #1 in Australia would have that attitude. And its possible but if hes Filipino why is he #1 in Australia? And his grammar is horrible. Anybody can say anything over the internet. While im at it, ld just like to say that i am Lord Poopy McWedge the 3rd and i rule all of Europe and i have 4 wives who are all actresses and im a blackbelt in every martial art. Im #1 in the U.S. and im 3 years old and vs. 20 year olds. I'm so good they call me a rainbow belt.
americans doesnt have their own war so they find war in other countries... like for example... world war 2, gulf war, war in iraq, vietnam war,.. america is in need a lot of attention...
US are total meddlers. Their intention was not to help us. US exploited our country. Bringing ethnic Filipinos living in the mountains like the Aetas to show the American population during that time that Filipinos were still barbaric.
I totally believe we were going to be just fine without your said help fighting off the Spanish colonizers.
@uglybetty40891 i agree tottally agree. but do not forget general douglas macarthur when his words 'i shall return'' echoed in our hearts and gave us strengh and courage during japanese occupation
@kenshin9518.. haha.. the Americans are not proud of being called quitters and such. We were under their rule so they could not abandon us, and letting us go and be captured by the Japs is a sign of weakness...
anyways, all is past. But I just can't let anyone who have superiority complex tell us that because of them we lived. Filipino pride! I wish Britain occupied us, most country they occupied are great now, specifically HK, and i luv that accent. :D
Good close quarter techniques here, and great defensive reversals. If you enjoy Kali but want something more street applicable (I am a cop), then I would also highly recommend Krav Maga.

@Lemuel117 that's good. :D ever noticed that for some reason it's easy to learn but hard to perfect even the basics? not to mention it's unnecessarily brutal.
lavatun 1 year ago
@lavatun yeah I have noticed that, I want to learn this martial arts really bad like for example if some random person picked a fight with me and if I knew this martial art they are going to wish they never messed with me.
Lemuel117 1 year ago
@Lemuel117 my master asked me and my friend why we wanted to learn. we told him for self-defense and it was true but he warned us that if he finds out that we used what we learned to pick fights he'll banish us from his training house. i've never used what i learned to defend myself so far and personally i hope it stays that way but i still practice to keep myself sharp.

@lavatun, i doubt that, i believe most filipinos know about their ma but i agree that it was as not popular as karate or tae kwon do but is now gaining popularity. fma's name also differs and depends on which part of PI you are. in luzon, fma is known as arnis, in visayas it is escrima and in mindanao it is kali. being ignorant and preferring another are not the same. during marcos and cory's time, arnis was integrated in physical education in all colleges and universities in the philippines.

You're actually fortunate you still have your MAs. My people lost our MAs when the white man came and raped the minds of my ancestors with Christian propaganda. The white evangelists changed everything so that even our martial dances have become a source of ridicule and jest. Few people practice them anymore and even fewer know what the moves really mean. I'd say you're lucky because you can make a serious difference in your country.

@AintNoSuperiorStyle truly unfortunate.. where do you come from brother? do you still practice your people's arts?

@lavatun
My father's ancestors were from Tonga, a country that had a maritime empire in the S. Pacific. We have Asian MAs now like ITF & WTF tkd, judo, soobahkdo and sumo but the native arts are all but dead. One dance, Soke, is all about using two sticks against the staff but is a dance reserved for kids. To see adults performing it warrants personal & public ridicule so it almost never happens.

@AintNoSuperiorStyle interesting.. by the way you described it, it has similarities to FMA stick work.. i'll do some digging on this.. why not try to propagate this martial art?..

@lavatun
The soke works in a 1on 1, 2 on 2, & 1 on 4 pattern initially. Then, to accommodate positioning, a dancer moves parallel to the opposite side along the rows while exchanging blows with the others. Obviously, the longer the line, the more the practice. However, the younger generation have no idea that this dance teaches stick fighting & many of the dance teachers haven't realized it yet either. In short, it sucks.
AintNoSuperiorStyle 9 months ago
@lavatun Those moves like most other Filipino arts are integrated with Japanese or Chinese arts. You can see a lot of linear Karate and circular kungfu there with some juijitsu judo throws and locks. The only original Filipino Arts that has unique moves totally different from other arts was also called Eskrima but it was an older version. It was demonstrated by one of the Original Doce Paris in Cebu. Unfortunately newer Eskrima burried those techniques with integration from foriegn arts.

@padukamahasari yes, very true. it's very hard to find fma w/ just that. fma. most of modern fma's moves now have been supplimented w/ other martial arts moves. doesn't necessarily make them less efficient and effective but it does make them somewhat "un-filipino"

pezilla123 5 months ago
@pezilla123 true.. :D you gotta admit though, most martial arts are sneakier than others. take wing chun for example. "sticky hands" will give any martial art a hard time if done by a competent wing chun fighter. i think the equivalent of sticky hands we have in arnis/eskrima/kali is palit-palit.
lavatun 5 months ago
@lavatun i do muay thai so i dont know what sticky hands means lol explain?
pezilla123 5 months ago
@pezilla123 cool.. :D brutally direct and uncompromising, muay thai. sticky hands from wing chun is like a chess game involving parries, feints and blocks that lead your opponent constantly guessing about what you're gonna do next at in-your-face close range. can't really explain in full detail coz i don't practice wing chun though i've seen it in action. :D i think it's better if you watch a vid about wing chun's sticky hands.

Another hidden gem exclusive to the Philippines that most of us kababayans dont even know exists. Not meaning to offend the guys here (or any non-filipino watching), they did great, but are we letting people like them take advantage of this beautiful thing, like how foreigners control Filipinos in Makati? Let's own this field, just like how Koreans own Taekwondo and how the Japanese own Karate.

As a half filipino *other half russian* who has lived in both America and the Philippines, people need to chill out about the racist jokes. At least foreigners take an interest in FMA just give them some brownie points there, and people that hate/ are being racist against filipinos about their fighting *two names for you* batista and manny pacquiao, don't tell us we suck until you faced the best of us.

@harrygats i wouldn't say "imperfect copies" of other martial arts.. it is true that all forms of fma are descended from malaysian, chinese and japanese martial arts but along the way its development they evolved into something different.. this form of martial art has been tested and proven to be effective since the olden days, days before the time of lapu-lapu. it's an old art, not as old as other more well-known martial arts but there is a reason why other countries use our system. . it works.
