Book excerpt: The vast majority of martial arts concentrate on the teaching of bare hands techniques. The Filipino Martial Arts have the particularity of focusing first on learning the use of weapons to forge the fighter and his physical abilities. Born centuries ago in the jungles of the Southeast Asian archipelago, and influenced by the western fencing of the Spanish occupiers, they are yet highly topical with their efficient and pragmatic approach of armed combat, and defense against an armed attack. This didactic book invites you to discover the Filipino Martial Arts and to progress with the training methods of the Ahuapan Combat Eskrima school. It is intended as an introduction for the neophyte, and a tool for the advanced student. From the learning of the footworks, basic strikes and counters, to the sequence of drills and disarms, this volume covers fundamentals of the Single Stick, the Double Sticks and the Knife. 110 exercises described in detail Illustrated by 500 drawings & photographs Thomas Roussel, head instructor of the Ahuapan Combat Eskrima group, is expert of Kali Eskrima for the Fédération Française de Karaté et Disciplines Associées (FFKDA) and represents the World Eskrima Kali Arnis Federation (WEKAF) in France.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kali, Arnis, or Eskrima, is a traditional Filipino martial art characterized by its emphasis on combat utilizing weapons. It incorporates an extensive array of techniques that involve the use of a variety of implements, including knives, sticks, and bladed weapons, in addition to empty-hand combat. Eskrima places significant emphasis on adaptability, efficacy, and practicality in the context of combat, be it armed or unarmed. One of the defining characteristics of Eskrima is its early emphasis on weapon cultivation. When learning how to use weapons for self-defense and combat, practitioners frequently begin with poles before advancing to other types of implements. This strategy has its origins in the historical milieu of Filipino society, during which a diverse array of bladed implements were frequently employed for self-preservation and routine activities. Drills, forms (referred to as "katas" or "forms" in other martial arts), and sparring exercises are typical components of Eskrima training. Striking, blocking, joint grips, and disarming adversaries are common techniques. Footwork is an essential component of Eskrima, as it teaches practitioners to maintain balance and control while moving efficiently and evading assaults. In addition to its pragmatic self-defense utility, Eskrima is esteemed for the safeguarding of Filipino heritage and its cultural significance. It has garnered widespread global recognition and is currently engaged in by individuals of diverse backgrounds and age groups.

Book excerpt: Eskrima, which is also known as Arnis (De Mano) or Kali, is the indigenous martial art of the Philippine Islands. Dynamic and flexible, with a wide range of training methods it can be practised by students of all ages and levels of fitness. Well known and respected as a highly practical weapons-based system, Eskrima is practised worldwide by civilians, law enforcement personnel and special units within the military. Eskrima uses training weapons (rattan sticks and daggers) from the earliest stages, alongside purely unarmed techniques. These training methods have been found particularly effective at increasing co-ordination and reflexes, providing a fast track to developing the qualities needed for practical self-defence. This fascinating book traces the history and evolution of this art form. It highlights Eskrima's essential principles and concepts. The instructional section illustrates how the Eskrimador is able to succeed in a wide range of combat situations involving fighting with both weapons and open-hands. Techniques, two-person flow drills, self-defence applications, training with specialized equipment, the philosophy of the art and 'self-defence and the law' are all covered in depth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sonny Umpad's Eskrima provides insight on Maestro Santiago “Sonny” Umpad's life, philosophy, and teaching methods, as well as the structural underpinnings of his system. Born with the soul of a warrior, the intellect of a scholar, and a zealot's devotion to his art, Maestro Santiago "Sonny" Umpad forged an enduring contribution to the rich and colorful history of Filipino martial culture. In 1976, after immigrating to the United States, Sonny founded the school of Visayan Style Corto Kadena & Larga Mano Eskrima—rooted in his training in the Philippines and tested by a hard and dangerous life on the streets, Sonny's system was above all else practical. As Sonny's reputation as a talented fighter became well-known, he began to cross-train with masters of other martial arts, including Jesse Glover (Bruce Lee's first student) and Wally Jay (founder of Small Circle Jujitsu). One of the most innovative and visionary exponents of the Filipino arts, Sonny pioneered the concept of "mixed martial arts" long before the term was in use. Instructor George Yore has assembled the writings of six of Sonny's students (including Wade Williams, 2012 nominee for the U.S. Martial Arts Hall of Fame) to create a biographic homage to this remarkable martial artist; basic techniques and applications are also demonstrated, accompanied by 130 step-by-step photos. Practitioners of Filipino martial arts—as well as mixed martial artists and security specialists—will find valuable instruction in techniques and applications, while the thousands of people touched by Sonny's teachings will gain a new understanding of this notoriously reclusive master's life—and how his experiences informed the development of his system.

Book excerpt: Filipino martial arts are now among the most popular in the world. Yet, as their popularity grew so did the need to open commercial clubs to teach larger groups of people, including children. As a result, these arts have in many cases gone the route of other martial systems--they have become commercialized, watered down, and their curriculum expanded in ways that keeps students in the clubs but detract from the art's intended use.Eskrima Street Defense is geared for the street. It offers readers dozens of practical techniques for dangerous street encounters in six specific categories: 1) Hand vs. Hand, 2) Hand vs. Knife, 3) Hand vs. Bolo, 4) Knife vs. Knife, 5) Bolo vs. Bolo, and 6) Improvised Weapons. These techniques are backed up with key principles for application, discussions of the most vulnerable striking points on the body, pointers for becoming aware of your surroundings in common public spaces where attacks occur, and rules for common sense self-defense.When applying Eskrima for street defense--as opposed to physical training or sport competition--simplicity is the key to survival. This book, like street techniques themselves, is direct and to the point. It focuses on developing safety, awareness, and skills to survive on the street when you suddenly find yourself in a bad situation against armed and unarmed assailants and multiple attackers.

Book excerpt: Eskrima stick fighting is indigenous to the Philippines and in the 1950s one of the most popular styles emerged: Balintawak. To appreciate Anciong Bacon's Balintawak Eskrima, you have to understand set-ups, anticipation, the art of outwitting through ruses and lures; economy and simplification of motion, sans lavish and squandered movements; effective strikes fused and bonded with speed, power, elegance and grace. That is the essence of Anciong's Balintawak and these are the methods Sam Buot explains and demonstrates in this book. Written from the author's half-century of personal experience and hard-earned knowledge, Balintawak Eskrima presents the art from origin to modern times, as a fighting art, as cultural tradition and a means of personal development. Illustrated with nearly 700 historical and instructional photographs, this book is a must-have for all martial artists and those interested in the history of a people and their fight art.

This comprehensive weapon system is broken down into techniques of Sensilla, Bambolia and Compuesta with methods known as Tiradin and Todasan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding who you are can be a lonely and difficult process following the diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome (AS). Asperger's Syndrome and Mindfulness illuminates this experience as an empowering path of discovery through the teachings of Buddhism. Chris Mitchell draws parallels between the experience of his own journey towards personhood through AS and the spiritual tenants of Theravada Buddhism, as outlined through the Eightfold Path, a guideline to personal development. Worry and anxiety, confusing desires or negative thoughts are among the everyday hindrances a person with AS faces. This book takes the reader through the key beliefs of Theravada Buddhism, such as Mindfulness and the Four Noble Truths, showing how practices such as Insight Meditation can lead to a positive resolution of these feelings. Talking openly about his own personal experiences, Chris Mitchell provides helpful tips and suggestions for improving confidence and self-esteem towards an overall better sense of self that will be of interest to anyone diagnosed with AS or their family and friends.
