V. LESSON CONTENT

ARNIS BEGINNING AND DEVELOPMENT

Arnis, as a martial art, was spawned in Philippine soil. It was known in ancient Philippines as kali, an ancient
Malayan word which implies a large bladed weapon longer than a knife.

This art was practiced primarily for self-defense by the pre-Spanish Filipinos who were noted for their friendly
nature and legendary hospitality.

Kali must have been derived from tjakalele which is a native fencing in Indonesia. This linguistic kinship is not
without basis considering that what is now Indonesia was once, in ancient times, a part of the Sri Vishayan and
Madjapajit empires whose spheres of influence reached the Philippines. Scanty records show that it is possible
that the ten Bornean datus who landed in the island of Panay in the 13th century were subjects of either of these
two ancient empires. History is quite definite, however. that during the reign of the ten datus in Panay, kali was
taught to children in a school called bothoan as part of their education.

The art of hand-to-hand combat has always been an integral part of the Filipino in his long, turbulent, and
bloody history. By force of necessity and self-preservation he became an expert in fighting with his hands, either

bare or with a stick and a bladed weapon. Even before the introduction of the bladed weapon, the early Filipinos
were already a fighting people using the bow and arrow or the long bow. The primitive Negritos, coming from
Central Asia during pre-historic times, were experts in these weapons.

However, about 200 B.C., the Malays migrated to the Philippines and brought with them the long knife. Their
coming enriched the Filipino arsenal in the fighting arts. Besides their sticks and bows and arrows, the early
Filipinos were now also experts in the use of bladed weapons and daggers.

This is especially true of the Muslims in Mindanao and Sulu who have a special inclination for these weapons.
Their skill in hand-to-hand combat with a bladed weapon had been proven in their untarnished history of
successes in repelling foreign invaders in their land. The numerous attempts of the Spaniards, the Americans
and the Japanese to conquer the Muslims and to colonize Mindanao always failed.

As testimony of the Muslims love for the


bladed weapon is their variety of the
styles the types of knives which include
the kris, bolo, kali and laring. barong.
gunong, kampilan, gayang. pim punal,
itak, banjal, bangkcon, lahot, and the
panabas.

Even today, one can find the most artistic


knives in Mindanao and Sulu in different
sizes and styles. The freedom-loving
Muslims of Mindanao and Sulu are
credited with the experimentation
systematization, and martial use of the
bladed weapon.

weapon in the South with the kalis, the forerunner of Arnis of the Tagalogs in the north. Kalis, a term which was
shortened to Kali for convenience, is also a fighting art which uses a long-bladed weapon or knife, stick or cane
and dagger.

Arnis de mano is the best known and the most systematic fighting art in the Philippines. It is a perfected art after
a long historical development from the kali systems designed to train the student to defend himself against armed
or unarmed attacks. Arnis, as it is commonly called, has been also known in other dialects as estocada among
theTagalog provinces and estoque or fraile in other regions.

As a fighting art, Arnis has three forms of play. They are the espada y daga ("sword
and dagger") in which a long wooden sword and a short wooden dagger is used; the solo
baston (single stick) in which a single long muton or baston (wooden stick or rattan cane
hardened by drying or heating) is used; and the , a native term applied because the
intricate movements of the two muton resemble the weave of a sawali (criss cross
fashion), the bamboo Splits weave patten used in walling and

matting. 3164614-espada-y-daga

Arnis is a close-combat affair, thus skill in parrying and striking


must be developed with utmost dexterity. The expert use of the leg
and the leg-hip fulcrum maneuver to outbalance and throw an
opponent must be perfected. Unlike other martial arts which make
use of complex body maneuvers, Arnis as it was then and as it is
now in its modem form, puts emphasis on the use of the stick and Source:https://guerreroarnis.com/resources/we

the hand-arm movements. arnis-1

Like in the early times, Armis today has three traditional training methods: They are (1) the muestrasion or
pandalag which teaches the artistic execution of the
swinging movements and stroking for offense and
defense in repetitive drills, (2) the sangga at patama
or sombra tabak wherein striking, thrusting, and
parying in a prearranged manner is taught, and (3) the

larga muton or labanang totohanan, in which two trainees engage in a free practice trying to outmaneuver
each other using all their skills. This is the ultimate phase of Arnis training.

Arnis, therefore, is the Tagalog orthographic translation of the Spanish arnes. However, some regions in the
Philippines still retain the word kali in their vocabulary for this art. Thus, we have pagkali-kali to the Ibanags.,
kalirongan to Pangasinense, kaliradman to the Visayans (escrima or garote to the Cebuanos) and baston to the
people of Panay and Negros Occidental, and sinawali to the Pampangeṅos.

Arnis today has experienced changes in the weapons used. Although the art still makes use of the itak or bolo
now and then, it has relied considerably on the use of the cane as a self-defense weapon. This is not because
the cane is less deadly than bladed weapons but mainly because in the later years, Arnis is engaged in more as
a sport. However, even in sporty competition in Arnis, a long bladed weapon is sometimes used. This might as
well be, because concentration of the use of a cane in the game of Arnis is relevant to the aims and programs
of the New Society which abhor the use of guns and bladed weapons to keep peace and order in the country.
This concentration will even benefit police agencies because the pre- sent world-wide trend in police policies
tends to discourage the use of guns and sidearms. The truncheon, a hard piece of wood much bigger in diameter
but shorter than the cane, has replaced all these.

Much of the antiquated techniques of the old Arnis has been modernized to avoid injury to students. But more
important, discipline and other moral values are impressed upon the students to strengthen not only the body
but the spirit as well

Modern Arnis was founded by the late Remy Presas as a self-defense system. His goal was to create an injury-
free training method as well as an effective self-defense system in order to preserve the older Arnis systems.
The term Modern Arnis was used by Remy Presas’ younger brother Ernesto Presas to describe his style of
Filipino martial arts; since 1999 Ernesto Presas called his system Kombatan. It is derived principally from the
traditional Presas family style of the Bolo(Machete) and the stick-dueling art of Balintawak Eskrima, with
influences from other Filipino and Japanese martial arts.

ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES

The true power of Arnis does not end with its techniques. Although, basically, the techniques are powerful
enough, there is still much power left untapped if these techniques are not executed along the essential principles
underlying its execution. Consequently, the usefulness of Arnis itself will be in vain if these principles are not
observed. It is essential therefore that the learner should know these principles by heart and commit the
techniques to memory.These principles are classified into two: the physical and the psychological.

THE PHYSICAL PRINCIPLE:

The learner must always bear in mind speed - speed in delivering the strokes, speed with the hand, speed with
the feet, and even with the eyes in spotting the weak points of the opponent. This speed develops in the player's
agility which is one of the fine qualities of a good Arnis player. The learner must train himself to stare for long
periods without winking-a wink in actual combat might prove fatal.

The learner should also learn how to swing the club. In swinging, the grip must be firm and the stroke must be
delivered with a jerk. He must also learn to relax his wrist after each stroke. A player should not allow distance
to separate him from his opponent as distance makes him vulnerable.

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PRINCIPLE:

The learner must not be unruffled but composed and calm so as to be able to concentrate on his opponent and
have a full command of the situation. The learner must also constantly be aware of the ability of his opponent,
knowing that his inability to assess every movement will be fatal to himself.

But above all, the learner must have the will to fight and win. Without this attitude, a player's efforts would be
inefficacious. The presence of an opening will have no meaning at all if the player does not have the will to seize
the opportunity and exploit it to his advantage. Indecision in any given situation during combat in Arnis usually
ends in defeat for the player.

Arnis students must also remember the other principles in arnis and these are the following: Character, sincerity,
discipline, self-control, etiquette and student’s loyalty to his tutor.

EQUIPMENTS USED IN ARNIS

The primary weapon is the rattan stick, called a cane, club or baston (baton), which varies in size, but is usually
about 28 inches (71cm) to 30 inches in length and about three-quarter to one inch in a diameter used

2 kinds of stick:

1. Padded sticks 2. Live sticks

Other equipment that can be used in Arnis may be a bladed weapon (replica)
with the length of itak or bolo, dagger or knife or a long
pole.

Gears for combative/labanan events is also used.

BASIC SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES IN ARNIS

THE GRIP

The grip is the soul of all fighting techniques in arnis. It is the correct grip that packs power to and control the
cane.

Hold the cane one fist away (2 ½ inches) from the punyo (butt).

Tighten your four fingers around it with your thumb pressed against your forefingers. The hold must be firm when
striking.

• In the book of Remy Presas it is suggested to hold the cane 1 inch away from the punyo

COURTESY/ PUGAY- Courtesy means respect for one’s opponent


How to execute pugay:
a. HANDA – feet are positioned shoulder with apart and sticks are held in
the front of the body.
b. PUGAY – place the weapon across the chest and nod your head.

BODY SHIFTING AND POSTURE


In Arnis, body shifting is very important. An Arnis player should be shifty in positioning his body at advantage
point so that he can strike with utmost power. Proper body positioning will also enable him to be outside the
effective range of an opponent’s blow or strike. body shifting consists of stepping, sliding turning or
combinations of these movements.

Moreover, posture is indeed important for the effective delivery of strikes. In executing all these posture, the
head should always face the opponent observing all his body movement. In executing the movements, the free
hand should always be on guard, held high at the chest level for defensive purposes. Lower body should
maintain its balance and execute bends if needed.

SINAWALI

The Sinawali is a form of Arnis done by 2 players holding a baston in each hand. This play is characterized by
the criss crossing movement of the baston

The Sinawali derives its name from the word sawali which is a native Filipino walling material. It is made of
intertwined thinned bamboo splits and is used in nipa huts in rural areas. The practice of the sinawali develops
the player’s agility coordination, timing and keenness of eyesight. Like the other twelve striking technique, the
sinawali is a good exercise in the mastery of Arnis play. There are 2 types of Sinawali, the single and the double.

SINGLE SINAWALI
