- Filipino martial arts, such as Kali, Arnis, and Eskrima, are weapons-based arts that utilize techniques involving sticks, knives, and empty hands. Apolo Ladra is recognized as one of the world's top instructors in these disciplines. He emphasizes the strategy of entering against opponents and advocates a continuous offensive approach, where the responsibility for defense shifts to the opponent.

Kali is just amazing, always flowing, never stopping and always attacking. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe, and God bless
Best phrase...
" ...After that , DECORATE IT ANY WAY YOU WANT"
A nice way to say " Finish your opponent "😎😎😎
RESPECT
The way he said "decorate it however way you want" damn. It's like saying "now you style on him"
Apolo is a great instructor. His brother is also amazing.
I’m lucky enough to study at his school. He is indeed a great instructor. He’s also amazing with kids. My four year old is also learning at his school.
Apolo you are an amazing teacher i am very intetested in filipino martial arts keep making more videos like this GodBless you forever
Apolo Ladra is such a good instructor. Clear and easy to understand, good context and doesn't go too fast to follow.
Very good instructions! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this knowledge.
Very good and practical technique and clear instructions. Pugay!
This looks very pretty, but when I see it work in a realistic knife sparring session then I will be convinced that it really works 💥👀
the problem is you are already dead before you know it😂
Seattle works in the penitentiary prison system where they deal with knives and stabbings and combat daily. It's great to train drills of course for repetition it's a must and also real times a different story specially when you have aggressors.
Beautiful, excellent 👏
Great instruction! Awesome method!
Thanks a lot Master Apolo Ladro, for this great technique, skill, speed, and Letal FMA ! After 10.000 exercise of only one Offence- Counterattack- Recounterattack, I will take on anybody from this Planet, with Blinde Eyes for sure ! ( Bruce Lee ). Great RESPECT !
Yes sir! Inside of the arm for Large Intestine Meridian
Nice instructors ❤
Thanks
Practical street fighting. I'm glad I found this. I have a lot of injuries to compensate for.
Dziekuje bardzo!Блогодарю!СZESC.
The best thing we ever did was intensive offensive training with a knife, you get to learn the good bad and ugly of the blade.
Then when it flips you already know the only angles that can cut you, mastering body mechanics knowledge for you and the opponent.
People don't realise the importance of 1. The footwork puts you in the right place and opponent ar a disadvantage 2. The short violent pulls and palm strikes give you the opportunity to "decorate it".
I know looking at the drills it looks superfluous, done at speed with violent intent it's a different game 🤐
Good pointers
The stick bit runs off of provoker-taker-hitter, a medieval German martial arts theory.
Of course we do it at longer ranges because you can use a blade to defend yourself as much as you can attack the enemy with it.
Reminds me of my escrima training!!!!
Great
Turn you into topsilog
XD
Lmao or bangsilog
tapsilog
Opo!!
OK
I want to learn
How a about sayonatsi technique.......??
having filipino in my blood, i must get into my roots!
I hope they will start teaching the Filipinos already about this , because the war is around the corner.
this guy probably killed some people when living in the forest. impressive
Forest principles does not mean friendly,sometimes brothers hurt brothers for survival. Never trust those dark side of human nature for not happening to u.
It looks like PH. Combat judo of the Doce Pares club.
❇️❤️
The real deal.

i wanna see filipino martial arts vs scottish. epic battle of offense vs defense (also this wouldnt work against someone who knows how to run)
Now apply that to reality
Believe me, the practical application of this martial arts is too common in the philippines among its practitioners and the philippine military. The reason there is no proper competition of this martial arts in the mainstream like karate, taekwondo etc is because of its killer nature. Filipino martial arts is not for show or demonstration, it is mainly to kill the opponent. That's what happened to magellan when he fought the old Filipino warriors during spanish occupation hundreds years ago. Magellan was turned into a kill test .

No that's not how it works.
Knife defense is nonesense
I'm no stranger to Kali but it's not practical as is anything against a knife.
It's better than no training but again you don't block knifes.
@@garycurrie2696
Judging from your comment you're probably a bigger stranger than you're willing to accept.
The first person that responded was trying to be polite.
If you think this wouldn't work in reality than that works for us.
40 years in this and my instructors were military vets who were known for sending fools to hell.
I followed in their footsteps RLTW and even I have been dragged before judges in my lifetime.
Again I actually like that there's fools who think this wouldn't work. So by all means carry on
@@garycurrie2696 Yeah, I saw someone block a knife stab IRL and guess who survive? The one who has the knife was in jail injured while the one who block the knife is unscathed.
Yes, you're right, it's mcdojo.
He's doing 3 moves, while his assistant only does 1 move.
the partner not reacted..
try with partner reaction when his hand get the touch
Duh this is showing how to actually do the techniques the real training begins in SPARRING.
@@justsomebody5450 i know and i am sure in sparing and real fight, the technique useless
Yes, you're right, it's mcdojo.
He's doing 3 moves, while his assistant only does 1 move.
Why is this master doing moves 3 times faster than his assistant? He's also doing 2-3 moves while the assistant does 1 move. That's macdojo signature feature...
How come these techniques are not commonly used in MMA?
MMA is an empty handed sport. This is knives, sticks and survival fighting. Or were you being sarcastic?
@@periechontology Genuinely curious. Cos it looks useful in terms of engaging an attacker, whether or not he has a knife/stick. Other martial arts like Wing Chun look similarly useful, but I don't see anyone using it specifically in MMA, so just wondering why.
same reason no MLB pitchers use NFL quarterback techniques
Most of FMA/Kali strikes would be deemed illegal in MMA. This is also true to FMA empty hands (no weapon) art which mostly targets the neck, eyes, groin, and etc. which is an instant DQ in any combat sports.
While you can fashion your FMA techniques where it can be used in MMA, you'd rather go practice other arts.
@@dion4670 I see. This comment is very helpful. Thx.
illegal to carry sticks around for self defense, don't ever think you are fast enough to replicate this instructor, carry pepper spray totally legal, next time you're in trouble, call this instructor to protect you
The sticks are just optional. And are there only for practice.
Real fights, anything you get your hands on.
This fighting style is developed in the spanish colonial era and is so effective that Filipino's were banned to carry blades by the Spaniards. Who has armor and Guns.
Yes, as you guessed it, the stick is adapted as a stand-in for blades.
You don't need a weapon because you, the person, is the one controlling your own actions.
Matter of fact, you are a more dangerous opponent unarmed up close. Hold the wrist, you control the hand, hold the elbow, you control the arm, Punch the Armpit and the entire arm will be disabled.
A guy who doesn't know how to handle a sword is a danger to himself. A guy who does is a danger to everyone around him.
And Kali is applicable to almost any hand-held melee weaponry.
Almost every street fight and hostage situations are within your range.unless we're talking way beyond that, then that would invalidate any self defense arts, including pepper sprays. (Unless you also have an uno reverse card Gun.)
It's mcdojo.
He's doing 3 moves, while his assistant only does 1 move.
Canes are legal.
ROFL. Every real fighter knows, the difference between amateurs and real fighters is defense. Look at Vargas video on professional fighters versus action stars. So basically, this guy is saying if you want to be an action star, learn from me. You want to survive and win a real fight, look at the other guys. What a disgrace to this art of fighting. DEFENSE WINS championships in all types of contest. Offense is only for show.
Pure fantasy
No. People don't stab that way. This ain't the movies
Actually people do stab this way....usually the psychotic or the untrained.
@@barrycooke2357 Fair
Believe it or not, there are martial arts who believes that you should stike that way. If you want to learn how to defend yourself, might as well practice against those who would also kill you differently than how the common people do.
Is that why 🇵🇭 always has been colonized by many countries? 😅😅😅
no, PH was not colonized through war but through political means (blood compact-partnership, in-fighting, secession) and religious conquest. FMA is widely used in the PH military and taught to US military to this day for a reason.
All these movements...just hit or kick his itlog..then it becomes itlogscreema cuz once i hit your webos you will screem😂😂😂get it screema😂😂
I usually like this channel's content because I'm interested in experimental/obscure martial arts techniques, but this is just going to get you killed. If someone pulls a knife, you run. There's no tried and true technique to win a knife fight unscathed.
IF, u can't run, are cornered, or your family, gf depends on your defense, u BETTER TRY SOMETHING!. U speak with no wisdom or real LiFe Experience.
Yeah until you have your wife or a kid with you and there is no other option but to defend them or you are cornered and nowhere to run. Don't get me wrong it's true that this is no guarantee but learning the technique would be a difference of you getting 20 stabs or 1 stab only.
More bs.
To fancy...has nothing to do with real violence and how people attack with knives in reality. Good for Hollywood but nothing more. Looks nice, but good luck if train this for combat.
you are INCORRECT si kali and ekrisma was used during the colonial times of the phllipnnies during the spannish.The techniques were so deadly that the spanish BANNED the use of bladed weapons.
WHAT MARTIAL ARTS IS NOT AGRESSIVE? LOL. PATAWA NAMAN KAYO!
