Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Eskrimadors is a 2010 Philippine documentary film about the Filipino martial arts Escrima, written and directed by Kerwin Go, a Los Angeles trained cinematographer.
The film documents the development of the martial arts of Escrima, tracing its origins from the tribal warfares of the Philippines to its practice among international martial artists. It include interviews with grandmasters Ciriaco “Cacoy” Canete, Dionisio Canete, and Undo Caburnay, and participation of groups such as Doce Pares, Lapunti Arnis de Abanico, Teovel’s Balintawak, Nickelstick Balintawak, and Liborio Heyrosa Decuerdas, in reenactments.
Thank you for posting this! I lived on Luzon as a teenager and trained for 6 years under Grandmaster Florentino Pecate Sr. This was before Dan Inosanto coined the term "Kali" for what was still called by its Spanish-derived name, Arnis de Mano. In fact, the system taught by Mr. Pecate was primarily Espada y Daga, sword and dagger: one stick the length of your armpit to the tip of your fingers, and one the length of the tip of your elbow to the bend of your wrist. The students custom cut and polished their own rattan sticks. Grandmaster Pecate included hand-to-hand training and, in the spirit of the original art, advanced students also practiced with edged weapons, though that was solo-only, of course, no sparring. It was the best grounding in martial arts I could have asked for. When I returned to the U.S., there were no opportunities for Arnis classes or even like-minded groups at that time, but that base of training served me well as I went on to study both Japanese and Chinese systems. I continued to practice Arnis on my own, and even managed to interest some others unfamiliar with it. Maraming salamat po!
I wish this Filipino Martial Art will continue and grow as wild same with other discipline likes Judo, Karate and Taekwondo. And be part of the regular events in the Olympics or at least in the ASIAN games (different from SEA games). But the main issue is MOST Pinoys are not interested to learn this fighting art nor knowing it. Filipinos are addicted in Basketball. The government should focus and spend lots of money for this.
I'm an Eskrima-Kali-Arnis fighter, instructor and trainer since 1994. Also I'm a former member of the Philippine ARMY Arnis Team 👊🥋🥇
I think the best thing they could do in the Philipines is make 1 class everyday at school starting from a young age to have an exercise class / stretching that teaches beginners footwork & hand self-defence.
It could even be similiar to slow flowing movements and patterns like Tai-Chi vs Kung-Fu in Hong Kong, an compared to Escrima with a stick being for after a certain year or grade in school training.
It would be a great way to add Filipino history in with a Physical Exercise class at school everyday or a few times every school week, learning footwork/dancing.
Then later Eskrima w/hand self defence too. However long each class time is in Philipines then you could have a class 30-60 mins everyday at school in their gym or outside taught to boys an girls as the national sport, for history, national pride, exercise, for confidence, dance footwork, etc.
I am sure it would catch on again quickly if it became a part of the school curriculum for the physical education/Gym/Sports/Exercise class!
That's true because I'm Filipino and 48 years old ,but only 1 year and a half year ago I discovered Philippines has own style and effective Martial Arts.now I like to study Filipino Martial Arts. LOTS OF PILIPINOS ARE NOT INTERESTED TO STUDY MARTIAL ARTS.
@@luisitocatalbas3804life is hard, even hard in South east Asia, people will learn what effective for their life, for money to extend the life, and sadly old martial arts is not part of that
It will never be. FMA is purely for killing hitting the vital organs. We dont have much striking and grappling that is not deadly.
Please continue passing it on to younger generations...it is a beautiful craft and the people should be proud of it.
Doing my part
Kali practitioner here, we are few in the philippines but we remain strong.
Isn’t that your guys national sport?
@@Spanishfutbol2010 No Arnis is our National. Kali/Eskrimal is for killings like a Assasin
Kali/ Silat guy here, much respect too you warriors in the Phillipines, I hope too visit soon and hopefully train with some of you
Keep the faith Sir
@@ahtisaaya26 Is it not all the same art.
I've been practicing Silat and Escrima since 1993 and Taiji, Bagua and Xingyi since 2008. I like practicing slow twisting and circling steps with blades. It nourishes my brain and I circulate my chi to stay healthy and massage my internal organs to stay soft and limber.
The first thing I would teach someone is how to relax and root and circulate Qi. After relaxing, someone can learn basic Gong Fu!

as Indonesian..iam so happy that this philippine martial arts has connection with our ancient Srivijayan arts
that is why a lot of people confused with eskrima and pencak silat because it looks very similar, i watched the raid movie and i thought it looks like eskrima, our fighting arts are like cousins in southeast asia
my ancestor is from srivijaya. 😊 we are from panay island. and our ancestor is the 10 datu. my forefather is. datu paiburong
when pre spanish era our ilonggo tribes has a group called. confederation of madjaas..
we are the same roots..
now the ionggo tribe in the Philippines is almost 11million people. i practice the art . and i dont want to die it with me. i will pass it if i have a son. or pass it in my nephew
Bought this docu on a dvd many years ago. I lost the dvd, glad i watched it all over again here in your account. The Best Kali escrima documentary ive seen so far.
Thanks for the upload, I appreciate learning more about the history of this martial art.
Me, a Filipina, wanting to fly back to the Phils just to be trained for a year by an escrima master ala Karate Kid because I am currently fascinated by the martial art
The new home of Eskrima is the USA. Ang Kuya Ko was told by his Iti to go to the US, and he did. We are of DeCuerdas' lineage from Anciong Bacon of Cebu
wow wow wow proud to be a pilipino...im inspired to practise arnis w/Gm Danilo Jorquia...Pugay sa lahat ng mga masters👏👏👏💓💓💓💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
14 years ago I had the fortunate opportunity to watch this documentary in UA-cam. Some of the first generation GMs passed, but, still this film made a so good impression, that it instilled a love for the Eskrima. ❤
Much love from Brazil.
Learning and preserving arts is our duty. I'm blessed to learn and teach this sword technique from Srii Vijayans. Shrii Vijaya ( Bisaya) was a prince from Rarh, India. Rarh was a great great Civilization

Thank you so much for this documentary. Pugay!
Great doc. GM Val is fantastic in the (choreographed) death matches
As a filipino I can't accept that in modern times foreigners learn it more than the locals. and locals can only learn when they were selected or even they pursue they won't be trained as much as the selected ones in comparison to the foreigners, they get trained as much as they want.

I think Pres. Duterte made it your national sport.
I went to a Eskrima festival back in 2018, there were huge school groups and hundreds of eskrimadors. That was just from one style.
It's out there, I hope you connect with it if you haven't already.
It's gotta be good for you.
@@theflamingone8729 It's already our national sports before, President Duterte came into position. Now I'm trying to connect or rather find good teachers with good personalities just like my former college professor still taught me this day but he's busy being in the faculty. I've encountered one who ranked high in a particular style but he's f*cking delusional.
@@emeraldlucky1274 thanks for putting me straight.
It's good to hear you're careful who you train with, even if it means your journey has a slow start.
There's a lot of good stuff on UA-cam to "tread water" with until you find your spot.
Anywhere near Cebu?
Jon Mac has a school there and a YT channel.
Good luck.
I reconnected with teachers from my old Karate style by posting on that organisation's Facebook page.

Little know facts..but crucial ones..While there are elements of Indonesian martial arts in eskrima, it is actually a hybrid art with Spanish destreza vulgar. Eskrima is actually esgrima the Spanish for skirmish, which what also used to describe destreza vulgar. Spanish monks initially passed on destreza to the natives as a means to protect themselves and the Church against pirates and sea raiders.
It wasn't the Spanish that conquered the islands. The Spanish provided ships, steel and leadership, but the actual conquest was executed by Tlaxcalan warriors. The same Tlaxcalan warriors that defeated the Aztecs. Tlaxcalan warriors and Filipino warriors were responsible for defeating pirates and raiders, as well as keeping the Moros from south from advancing north towards Luzón. The next 300 years, Filipinas was not governed from Madrid, but from Tenochtitlan(Mexico City), and the Virreinato de Nueva España. As recently as World War II, a Mexican Eagle Squadron, training in Manila, took flight and defended the skies of Manila against Japanese aggression.
¡Viva Filipinas! ¡Viva Mexico!
The Eskrima, Arnis and Kali the True Weapons in Philippines Martial Arts.
When i try to start studying Arnis i realize how important our Filipino Martial Arts or (FMA) not because you learn about self defense or to learn combat fingting skills especially on blade weapon, its all about our own culture & tradition that it becomes Vanish because of modern era. sadly that most of the new generation of the filipinos are not interested of our own martial arts. While the other people especially the foreigners who are the one who appreciate and wants to learn the FMA. because of the deadly, effectiveness, & beauty. Of our filipino martial arts Especially on blade weapon. So that is why im so sad about the most of the Filipinos ignore the Value of this art. As a beginner i want to learn more of them because we had a lot of different System of Arnis/Kali/Eskrima. Not Becausr you are learning about the arts you are also learning & preserve about the culture history of our filipino art i hope most of the masters of the FMA will past their knowledge of this arts to the other filipino people to continue & to preserve our original arts culture and tradition. Iets support FMA! Pugay! Arnis/Kali/Eskrima 🤩🇵🇭👊

Good. I'm also one of the eskrimador. I feel I'm only one who appreciate this because of its rarity. Almost no one relates my habit except for my training mates. And keep it up dude just train it and you will discover th e importance of it. I hope FMA will be greate again.
Pugay!
pagsubo nga gamay ra nagptaktis ani... filipino martial arts... the best
Maraming salamat po sa lahat mga MASTERS💪🏾💯
This is a first time I have I have seen this martial art Kali.
I've been a life long student of San Soo, which is heavily incorporated with different forms of all types of martial arts around the world, and closely with Wushu Kung Fu for example.
In hand to hand in Kali I see that the hand combinations are very close to Wushu in terms of the very close quarters of the hand to hand movements of defense and offense.
For whoever might be interested in more details about San Soo - it's what the Chinese Red Army teaches the soldiers for their hand to hand fighting system.
Much respect to all of the students of this intriguing martial arts.
Great film
Kali practitioner from the u.k, I've only been training in this martial art for about 12 months, loving my training great martial art 🙏🏽❤️
Well done documentary.
Brilliant, thank you
SGM Diony said: "they were from the criminal element side of society..." -but used by law enforcements and military all over the world these days.
Now, I need to learn this
sad to think that it's our National Martial Art and Sport but there are only few people nowadays knows and how to properly use it :(
Then learn it.
They used it in military
So are you doing it because i am. Padayon ta!
This is my sport rn and I want to become good my trainer is a grandmaster and i want to be like him.
Arnis were thought in elementary schools as part of PE back in 80s.
They should do it again!

Fenomenal documental o documento de este arte marcial o de combate yo lo visione con subtítulos en mi idioma aparte de llevar más de 13/14 años practicándolo entre otros muy recomendable
Nice!!!
I practice this art . My master knows the masters in the super documentary.
Same here!
Yes my Master pratique with their , my Master name is Jean Claude Calimoutou
Great! Mine trained doce pares under the Cañetes.
@@mikecoble2001 hi if you agre we can chat on Facebook my larive stéphane
@@jeanstephanelarive5921 sure thing. Next time I'm on, I'll add you
I really want to learn this art and hopefully can pass it to my children. the problem parang wala man dito sa gensan nagaturo nito.
Ako gyod mahinumduman ako papa maayo pud ani taga barili cebu
Haven't seen this in a while
Oh this is great. I seen Steven Seagal do this dance
Best documentary I've seen about martial arts!
Kung ating titingnan, mahahaba din ang mga buhay ng mga masters.
Illustrisimo wasn't mentioned once, isn't he very influential on contemporary Filipino martial arts?
Right?!? Also Grandmaster Floro Villabrille.
because its in another lalawigan or in english is another state of the country. other place of philippines there are a lot of Grandmasters here in the philippines older than the other but its still respected even if its not mentioned. I was trained by my grandfather and he learned his eskrima from our ancestors but my grandfathers don't teach eskrima outside our family. our family's main lethal technique is stabbing to the vital points of the veins we always aim to the carotid for a quick finished not slashing. that is why my two uncles are in prison for killing an opponent. they killed their opponent because of the land grabbing officials who bullied our family.
Because this was a Cebuano production and most GMs shown here are currently in Cebu. Ilustrisimo was also Cebuano but relocated in Manila.
Illustrisimo was not from Cebu....this doco is mainly focused on eskrima masters from Cebu
@@kevingatebridge3656 Illustrisimo was born in 1904 and was a native of ( Bantayan, ❤CEBU☝ ) and YES ABSOLUTELY " KAMOT LIHOK" ( KALI⚔ ) Originated in ❤CEBU☝💪👊 Facts💯%
Dog brothers proved absolutely no one fights that way for real. Still a great documentary
No one in the dog brothers fights that way, that true but it is in their roots. Take off all the protective gear and the way they fight will change, drastically.
Yep
Dog brothers only wear headgear and gloves, no chest, arm or leg protectors , it’s the closest thing to no rules than any other FMA sparring. They fight with all weapons and it shows what really works.
@@jimromero8224
@@Budoray85 the root of dog brothers is Filipino martial art....and Yes, these are random pattern Drills to enhance INTUITIVE reactions... just like in boxing...because in a real fight with weapons, Reflexes and reaction are your only best defense to survive...
Filipino Martial Arts 👌🏻
That was brilliant
I imagine when replace stick with blade, it will be sundang?? And more dangerous in real battle
32:16 GM 'Inting' Carin. RIP (1921-2003)
magellan is afraid on this.
this is banned during spanish colony.

I feel that without the head gear the tournament matches wouldn’t go on as long as

saang may magandang gym na may filipino martial arts dito sa antipolo?...gusto ko itong matutunan!
Wala sa Maynila yan sa Cebu lang yan. Originally from Cebu yan.
nasa cebu ma'raming gym paturo ka sa grand masters.
I'm training in balintawak this time, and I became more eager with boiling blood since I always heard in the news the their are young maidens got rape and murdered especially the murder of the child actress judith eva barsi, I become more eager to train with the hope that my training in martial arts can save someone's life and bright future one day not just to defend myself and my family. Eskrima will be the equipment I have in my arsenal if that time will come.
Pugay po, mag advice na lang rin po ako that if it means of protecting your loved ones, kailangan mo rin maging madumi sa arts nato. Eye pokes, biting at breaking of bones. Its kill or be killed talaga dito
Balintawak would do wonders for your reaction time.
@@hihe530 yes, yan sinabi sa akin ng instructor ko, ang balintawak daw kase ay madumi makipaglaban kase hindi ito pang sports kundi combat talaga. Thanks for the advice, sakto din matibay ngipin ko pangkagat.
@@iandominiclagman7546 Iba talaga tinuturo ng balintawak ehh, lalo na yung palakaw mahahasa ang reaction time mo kaya nang nagsparring kami ng kaibigan ko bilis ko makareact at salag at napansin ko di ako madali matamaan dahil sa drills at training ng balintawak.
@@justinvillar7008 bwahahaha good yan, ako naman kasi ay nagaaral lang ng arnis/kali/eskrima para lamang magpakita na importante itong martial arts sa ating sarili para maprotektahan ang pamilya at sarili sa kasamaan.
E boto nyu ako.. ibabalik ko to . Dapat fma tayu magaling at sariling atin.. hindi boxing at kung ano paman . Galing sa banyaga. Bakit hindi natin tangkilikin ang sariling atin.. FMA. DAPAT.
21:24 was really surprising
44:50 original music? Wanna listen to the thing
In Luzon part we called it Arni's..in Visaya they called it eskrima.in Mindanao they called it Kali....it is most dangerous martial art if you learn it right and properly
💗💗💗
25:22 not only ar that time, also today...
Bjj Muay Thai and escrima= modern day Viking
Where's Dan inosanto?
5:56 ..kingdom of Srivijaya was in South Sumatra (now part of Indonesia), and Kingdom of Majapahit was from east Java (also part of Indonesia nowadays)....just my 2 cents..
Pleas do recognize also GM Master Renato Giatano A. Diomo Born in April 27, 1926 Grand Master of Manoso Todo a Secret Operatives of President Marcos Sr. And a Member of NISA today is NICA. He is The Man who trained The Jabida Fighters and capture Manero of the Ilaga Group who killed Fr. Tulio Favale an Italian Priest in his time.

Ahhh yess... Good old Filipino Arnis, I recognize this MA stye in several movies such as, Game of Death - Bruce Lee, Out for Justice, Under Siege & Code of Honor -Steven Seagal, *Exposure, ie A Grande Arte (1991) -Peter Coyote -best example. It's the official Korean Navy UDT/Seals CQB secret combat system named 'MUSAT'.😜😜😜😜😜
It’s a complete system for mental and physical health
Dili ko gusto mawala Ang eskrima
dili ni mawala kay naa ra ganahan ani. ako karon ga Tabimina Balintawak ug Cacoy Doce Pares kaniadto. Ang di ganahan maski naa pa sa PE wala ra gihapon na kay dili sila gusto sa art.
Pugay @dockilat5576
Gusto kong matutong mag eskrima
Halika for only 1000 peso mo gawin nating pera ko.

Nickelstick is the name pf the organisation. The school is pure Arnis Balintawak

No Grand Master Pogi?
What happens you if you don’t have your sticks?
Then you use something else...knives, baseballs bat, iron bar, your hands...anything availble
In filipinor martial the use of sticks is the most basic skill. It is only when you master the stick that you progress to hand to hand combat. What happens if arnisadors don't have the stick? That is when you see their real skills.
Sir I believe I met you in the park today. Sorry you Ran off my name is a Victor Morales I i’m president of Doce Pares Puerto Rico

Ndi uubra ang kung fu ng chekwa dito!!
Most Filipino, Find Arnis as “baduy”. They would prefer taekwondo, fencing , kendo or jujitsu.
The young generation are not interested in our Filipino art's of fighting anymore they interested in foreign fighting styles time will come escrima.arnis pace out .no more from Toledo City Cebu.
Many Filipionos doesn't know how to play the piano.
