- Part of a eight part series documentary on the Martial Arts of south and south east Asia, originally broadcast on the BBC in the early 1980s. This episode follows the very old, yet ever developing, Philippino martial art, Eskrima. It has developed, largely, due to the use of knives in the Philippines and teaches one how to defend against and use knives or small blades. Part 1 of 4 parts.

the knife techniques in eskrima is the best part to me...in real life situation grappling and boxing can only take you so far.
muchas gracias para compartir! saludos a mis hermanos Filipinos desde España
Answer to previous question"Japanese influence".
The Canete brothers were all involved in Judo and karate back in the 1930's. Cacoy has 3rd dan in aikido also. Adopted kata as a training method from Japanese style. AFAIK the only Filipino grp to do kata. Made Doce Pares very effective. I trained with Cacoy in the late '80's. Terrific experience. I'm a student of Glen Gardiner and Vince Palumbo. Great knife work too. hi Alice- Townsville here!
Am a member of Doce Pares long time ago, it's nice to see cacoy in youtube. I was his student back in the 80's. I miss his humor and exhibition. Is he still alive?
Thanks for posting ,it's a gem
havent seen this since i was a kid, thanks for this!
listen carefully to the last quote of this video everyone! that's the key to defeating most opponents. good vid, liked it!
i used to take Kuntaw..and i practiced Eskrima. One of my teachers actually was in a hand to hand fight in Vietnam and he used Arnis and such.
RIP Cacoy Canete. Truly one of the greats.
I think it's quite possible the Japanese martial arts had some influence in the modern styles of Eskrima/Kali/Arnis. There was a Japanese invasion on the Philippines in World War Two. The FMA is quite open to inovation , if a Judo sweep works in a stickfight, why not use it and add to the system? Its one the aspects I like the most in the art.
Wow finally some one spoke as the narrator i was just expecting something like the demo would last 4 parts
Grandmaster Cacoy. A great great man and true escrimador.
Peace

What a fucking awesome documentary! True martial arts right there!
Worth watching!
its sad to say that this martial art is not fully embraced by the Pilipinos now a days, i've only seen a very few practice houses or dojo promoting this art... and most of the Pilipino youths refer Korean Taekwondo or Japanese Karate. how i wish that they teach Arnis, escrima or kali in P.E classes in Elementary or High school. because this martial art is one of our greatest treasure.
and it sad to see that there are more foreigners (non Pilipino) getting better in escrima than Pilipinos. :(
@GaolisVideoLog
yes... well i always believe that it is not to late for us to turn the our culture back on top... i've seen alot of individuals who are interested with our native script (baybayin). it is sad to say that our culture is fading very fast. but i think we can still make a different.. thanks for giving me an idea...
Since it's adaptation to the training regime of the Philippine Marines, it took escrima 1 decade to be recognised as a national sport. .
I love how the master is like all aloof and quiet in the corner but he'll probably be like a demon when challenged in a fight.
I think silat came first. The Filipino peoples adopted it, and it change during the Spanish period accomodating european fencing. Its a true mix of East and West.
@FishEaster yes kali escrima are originated in cebu they are decendants of great empire called Sri vijayan empire
I would like to learn this
you can visit CACOY DOCE PARES ESKRIMA in youtube,and you can see more actions 25 years after the WAY OF THE WARRIOR DOCUMENTARY...
Do you know if anyone can get a dvd of this somewhere?
I like diony canete, but I don't believe Eskrima is the best, although I do like to use it. It's effective for me.
sheeeesh, cacoy was so young then....
ahhhh Cebu my homwtown:D
proud to be pinoy and a cebuano.. ehehe
@Don0chi0cho mabuhay!
Doce Pares is like the Knights of the Round Table
if we were just a lil bit taller, you'd most likely see alot of us in NBA lol
their multiple strikes are speedy.. i don't think i'll be able to count out the blows if i'm hit with that tech.
no actually in Eskrima, you first learn to use the sticks, then the sword, and then the dagger.
Then after u master them all you can learn to use an combination of them. All the swoed technique in Eskrima is practice through the sticks.
So when you know how to use the sticks, you'll know how to use the swords.
may say ka sa bayan mo, may pananagutan ka. kung buhay mo ang dapat ilaan so be it... "ang mamatay ng dahil sayo"... Ang mga pilipino ay may mga mamamayan na may katangian na maganda. mdami nga lang nagtratrayduran. Pano walang Nasyonalismo... tulad mo... d ako mawawalan ng pagasa sa bansa ko. ako ay gagawa ng mga bagay na makakapagpaganda dito kahit sa mga maliit na bagay lang. pinagmamalaki mo kulay at mga isla... hay nako... wala yan mga yan, una dapat ang Pinoy. nagkakaganto ako dahil
i wish they'd show more than doce pares, considering that there are less sport-oriented groups out there that need to be addressed. on top of that, alot of eskrima groups use pure filipino techniques rather than japanese variations. i have respect for doce pares, but they frustrate and bore me.
aus :) mabuhay
philippino, filipino, sorry but it's a minor spelling error at worst. it means the exact same thing.
dang. i want a 12 pares shirt. my fambam is from cebu =]
Trophy = Breathing + scars.
why do i have a craving for a candy cane now? =/
thats fine skypants9 as long as they know that filipinos exist on this planet...
sakita siguro ug matapsingan ka. ouch!
National Sport of the Philippines is Sipa..
By the way you spelled filipino wrong its not spelled Philippino its FILIPINO just giveing you a heads up. and no i dont mean to sound rude
kala ko si ka ernie baron. si gary lising pla
yes we fight with our fists, try looking up Yaw-Yan
The job of a teacher is to make their students better than them, Cacoy seems too insecure to do that
IT'S "FILIPINO", NOT "Philippino".
kala ko si ka ernie baron
2:58 WTF
it's filipino, My friends always argue about it.... I have to keep telling them... ugh
I thought it was hookin
@darkj3am ayoco na ng P!l!p!no nga. Tama !caw
pinapatay mo ang Pinas. dapat me gawin ka namang paraan para mapaunlad to. at wag mo kaming pahiyain. samasama tayo sana. sinabi na ni Rizal na hindi sya pabor sa mga Anarchist. makakapagpigil lang iyon sa pagunlad. ngayong me paparating na botohan sa 2010 iniimbita ko ang lahat ng mga Pinoy na gamitin ang Right to vote. kundi maiiwan ang mga boto sa mga hindi edukado nating mga mamamayan iyon eh sila ang pinupuntirya ng mga kandidato. boto ka
natalo man tayo kung un ang iniisip mo padin. ehdi... bakit kapa nabuhay? tayo dapat may iisang pananaw na pagandahin ang buhay sa pinas. kaso me mga d naniniwala dun. ang mangyayare ehdi sila ung mga pinoy na traydor sa bayan. hindi lahat ng pinoy traydor. niilan lang. kung di ka traydor bakit mo sinasabi ang mga bagay na yan? tapos wag mo ng ikumpara ang pinas sa iba pang bansa dahil ang ibang bansa wala namang "darkj3am" kaya masuerte sila. d ka tama. kahit anung angulo mali ka.
@FishEaster BS
LOL, its FILIPINO =P
HAHA
yo darkj3am maybe ur country has no future if u say tht my hometown has no future. Maybe you should back of and stop being mean and horrible. Maybe your just jelouse. I mean a pinoy champion won in boxing. Philippines is a Catholic country and if your a filippino maybe you should give respect like all others giving respect to different people!
wala ka lang kwentang tao. KAhit anung mangyare ganun ka. anu man ang nadanasan mo na paghihirap ganun ka parin. kaya hindi umuunlad ang pinas dahil sa isang tulad mo. ayaw mo lang gumawa ng paraan para umunlad ung bansa. ako nakakatulong ako sa bansa koi dahil hindi ako nagtatapon ng basura sa kalye. malaking bagay na un. pinagmamalaki ko ang bansa ko natalo man tayo noon sa mga banyaga dahil hindi nagkaisa ang bansa. nagkanyakanyang grupo ang mga katipunero laban sa isang Bansa
