Good video Super Dan, as much as I like listening to the history of my teachers and or or styles of martial arts, I enjoy seeing what their takeaways (view points) were from training with them, and that is a subject that's sadly not covered as much.
Yes, they are. I do use the terms interchangeably because it communicates more broadly to people who have only heard about the arts. Those of who train FMA do know they are basically the same.
@@superdananderson1382 I see. I do notice you didn't use the term Kali. The term Kali is baically unheard of in the Philippines until the mid 2000's. It's either arnis or escrima, havng arnis as the Northern version of the art and Escrjma in the south. Kali was first used by Diaspora Filipinos to makr fma sounds more Philippinized. Kali, in Visayan means to dig, while Kalis in Tagalog is the word for sword.
@@superdananderson1382 I learned escrima from the rural backyards. No ranks whatsoever, only teacher and student, no fancy belts, only pure and primal techniques, and heck no fancy name either. Just escrima, which, they taught the village keepers of the peace.
Didn't get to study with Remy as long as you but I studied with multiple special forces instructors and Remy was one of the very best. I miss him. 👍
Same here.

Thank you.
Thank you.
With due respect sir, don't use arnis and escrima together. Basically, they're both the same thing.

Yes, sir. According to my research we are of the same mind regarding the term, kali.
