Escrima Seminar - An Introduction

In this introductory class, you will learn some key aspects of Escrima, which include:

Weapons Focus: Central to training are wooden sticks (Escrima sticks), but techniques apply to knives, machetes, and anything else you can grab.

Adaptability: Skills transfer to improvised weapons, turning everyday items into defensive tools.

Empty-Hand Skills: Includes disarming, joint locks, and close-quarters combat, often blending with weapon techniques.

Synonyms: Often called Arnis (from Spanish "armor") or Kali, with slight regional differences in emphasis.
