As a humble traditional practitioner of the art, doce pares, balintawak arnis and dumog, I could say that the real fight involving this art is extremely fast, no quarters given and extremely deadly. It's usually over within seconds because it usually involves a counter and a knife thrust, or neck breaking when ure unarmed. Is art also mixes well with other martial arts like judo or taekwondo for kicking. Put it this way, what we see in films and even in promotional videos are simply drills and execution of techniques. Note that to us, application is different from execution of the technique. Based on my experience, in real fights, a good practitioner of Arni's/Kali has incredible foot work and hand speed that makes them close to untouchable. Once it attacks, it's usually to maim or kill.
Agreed, like boxing for example. During mit works with a trainer, boxers can string punches, slip, weave, have amazing footworkn and over-all just look pleasing to the eyes....but eveyone knows that that is not how an actual bout unfolds in real time. Much like kali/escrima/arnis, those are just drills that look impressive, an actual fight would play out very differently.
Well all arys that involves killing, weapons etc. Are always over in seconds or in a minute, mainly because it doesn't take a genius to see that ending a fight the fastest way possible will make you safe in the least amount of time lol
Kali is excellent in close combat and Sikaran is cool when there is an open distance to hit your opponent with a thunderous kick. Loving this art of Martial arts it helps me survive the worst ever close combat fight.
@@Fnelrbnef Arnis/Kali/Escrima Is one, Kali is still arnis but empty handed, and Sikaran is like Muay Thai. Dirty Boxing Panantukan Is also a filipino martial art.
Only main kicking indonesian art I ve researched into is silat, can you please tell me about sikaran or recommend where to find its fighting tehory online? Thanks in advance!! : )

But BJJ can't even comprehend that their Martial art will fail, when it comes to fighting more than one opponent. It's not like you could grapple and disabled more than one enemies.
Like in most arts, you have to adjust what you’re taught to reflect modern times, laws and social structures. The odds of you getting in a knife fight are incredibly low. Even lower getting Into a sword fight. But being attacked with a knife? Now that’s something worth training for in a self defense context. Know your local laws about when you can deploy a knife in your own self defense. I’ve been a PTK player for several years and it’s been an invaluable addition to my prior martial art and law enforcement/counterterrorism career. But you need to look at it with a critical eye and apply it’s lessons correctly

Kali a filipino Martial Arts was a Combat Martial Arts not a Sport, this Kali was design to defed your self and to kill the opponent this Martial arts was used by Filipinos against the Spanish occupation, also used during Filipino and American war.

how they can say that Kali is unrealistic when it uses weapon such as knife to hurt people.knife is not unrealistic it's use for street fight long ago in the Philippines even now to this date consequences are you might put in jail if you killed your enemy.real score of arnis is it's use to practice bolo that's why browning invented the iconic firearm of all time the devastating cal .45.because unlike the arrow of native Indian and their spear bolo is very devastating to human body it could be half the human body when it's hit by very sharp bolo that's why they invented cal .45 to match the very humble Filipino bolo.
Well chinese martial arts uses swords, knife spears yet they have a bad reputation on the nartial arts community. Mostly kali is facing criticism based on the way we train our knife and disarms, since we flow with the knife like how wing chun exchanges their hands many people don't see it as functional, while overlooking our pressure testing (we use marker and a white shirt to pressure test knife) on the dis arms however i can agree that a lot of our dis arms on stick fighting has many artistic variations which would need a ton of skills to pull of and so it was deemed as unrealistic
Kali and other Filipino martial arts are intended to kill or maim the opponent in close combat. SPhilippine Special Forces are trained in this kind of martial art so they can rip the testicles and take out the innards of rebels and terrorists haha.
Athletic performance models for FMA is exactly what it needs. Sparring. Fighting. Yes, there are artificialities but its much more valuable that swinging sticks in the air and pretending they are swords.
Martial arts is more like muscle memory. I’ve seen a Ranger fought a man with an axe, a fucking axe. My feet was planted and petrified every time the man swings his axe while the ranger just dodge it. The ranger was a fucking ninja. Luckily nobody was hurt.
I got intonit because I watch young justice and also i though it was cool to beat someone with stick. imagine being KO by a fucking stick, how funny is that
I am so confused.. number 1 he said the its pretty much not effective, then on 5 he said kali is functional and relevant today.. now which is which? effective or not?
“Pretty doesn’t mean effective” is whar he said. He was alluding to 2 different forms of teaching by gurus. Some schools teach the art for the beauty of the art itself but lose the effectiveness, while some focus on effectiveness but isnt necessarily flashy. He went on to say he doesnt find fault in it since it caters to different people.
jitsu vs do. PG E Sulite "Train with INTENT" and remember kids. if you think you should use a knife it's probably too late. and the winner of the knife fight dies in the hospital.
The only thing kali is getting disrespect, is because alot of people use it wrong, and some youtube channels that teaches it, teaches it wrong, channels such as mark anasticio and daniel bernas , they are doing it wrong and Forcing their lame techniques to people which is really sad, their technique can't be use in real life situation and haz alot of openings. Tbh , its a dangerous martial arts that can be learn only through dedication and self discipline. You can't learn it in weeks but months and years I've been through it for 3 years and I tell you its a worth self defense technique.
They keep marketing it as "self-defense" when the reality is the art is more favorable for the attacker. It's an art of killing not the other way around.
You do know that mark anastacio and daniel bernas teaches arnis for sport right? Mkst of the tacticts that they employ are used for sparring, send me a link of them saying it was used in self defense i wanna see
There's a reason FMA went to decades of hiatus. After WWII, the old masters decided NOT to teach their martial art to the next generation and let it die with them for the simple reason, they don't want to raise a new generation of killers or murderers. Filipino **Martial Art** is very effective ONLY with the use of bladed weapons. Everything else is a transition to martial "sport".
Well, they say it's unrealistic mainly because a lot of our dis arms has too many steps and swirly things lol, besides coming here in ph still wouldn't nake them free of mcdojos

PANANTUKAN - or dirty boxing it’s very similar to western boxing but it use elbows head buts, traps and throws it is more devastating when using together with a knife,
SIKARAN - it is very similar to Taekwando but it predates it by couple of hundred years it use kicks and knee strikes and and throws

When you fight with razor sharp knives in nothing but a loin cloth for thousands of years you get the greatest martial art ever created!
kali is good martial art in law enforcement like filipino police study kali in the school
Every time this person out with his words that always left with a question that do we really know what we're doing.. Awesome person. Thank You GN for such an valuable blog.
Good Explanation sir. The in real life kali is to kill in seconds. That's why we only learn basic Drills and history in our school in Philippines.

Any martial art can be effective if trained properly
if you have only 5 minutes
to prepare before violence
teach your men FMA kali
A lot of modern artists particularly in BJJ always have the mindset that theirs is the only effective or realistic style
Well it depends on the scjool, rhe instructor and the practitioner themselves
But BJJ can't even comprehend that their Martial art will fail, when it comes to fighting more than one opponent. It's not like you could grapple and disabled more than one enemies.
Train. Practice. Adapt. Train. Practice. Adapt.
Wow, it is a Filipino thing, guys....Thanks GOD
