LOL
*BOO*
They probably got hit by the stick once and died .
😆bahaha! You guys!
I hope this will be a requirement to all Filipino in their P.E.
Sadly non of our government officials give a damn on our Kali
@@paul5475 yep. The only thing that's taught to us is basic arnis that LITERALLY DOESN'T HAVE ANY USE.
well we had it in our PE on my 7th grade
I agree. This should be thought in schools.
Yes our school teaches us the basic of arnis martial arts but not really like that. it's like a dance or an slow role play back when we still have a face to face class before pandemic
Last week I was introduced to Escrima. I instantly fell in love with it. Now I found this and now I am burning for this. A true master! A unique martial art. 😍
at 70yrs of age, his hand-eye coordination is still impressive!
*Grandmasters in our home country is declining*
And the students willing to learn is also declining..
I hope the youths of today take interest in such beautiful art.
I hope the youth take an interest it would be like losing a very old valuable gift
@Rock Roll Lol? That's why this martial art is almost practice by law enforcement and military all over the world because of it's effectiveness not only as a martial arts but as a combart sports. Have you done martial arts my friend?
@Rock Roll,
You should wonder why Brazilian martial arts practitioner are learning kali-eskrima.
Youth not want this fake bullshit

20 YEARS AGO I went to a all day seminar with Master Bobby Taboada. I learned more that day for real world save your azz than all other training have had put together. He also is a GREAT MAN with an good humble soul.
Ancient filipino martial arts. Still alive.
Of course it's alive
Once a great teacher always a great one!!! At this age his reflex are ,ind blowing to me !!! Great job Sir!!! Huge Huge respect!!!
agreed
I'm so happy I entered arnis I want the culture to stay alive
And in high school they teach us arnis in p.e. time
Philippines!
We learned arnis in highschool, there was a time we could do sparrings hearing the sticks hitting each other in almost uniform pattern. We were only doing it for an evaluation in PE, but it was a very good learning experience. Its amazing how your reflexes develop while practicing it. I want to relearn it again😔
I grew up in Cebu but now resides in US for over 30 years. Too bad some of this techniques are lost forever because not many Filipinos practice this fighting technique. I myself practice Karate. I could have learned a lot from this guys. I live in area where a lot of the Masters resides. The Romo's, Maranga's and not too far just a few blocks away the Canetes. People come from all over the world come to learn from this guys.
Love this training. I have trained in escrima numerous years. You must develop muscle memory. Do the technique without thinking.
Great teacher with incredible skill combined with patience and humility.
Imgaine how quick his hands back when he's younger.
Seriously, he probably had Floyd Mayweather type speed
My grandfather was an arnis master fought in the war with bolos, arnis stick with a butterfly knife,he died in 2016
@@jameshurtado5389 no i can confirm that if he fight floyed in a ring he will die, but if it is a war zone floyed would not know how he die.
@@cardinalwilson8034 Floyd only fight where he’s at an advantage. Conor & that Japanese guy never had a chance when they fought. If they fought using MMA rules the outcome would have been different.
@@poke6983 bro, was your father able to pass the art to you or anyone?
To everyone misunderstanding something, what are you even judging? There was no real "sparring" going on in this video, this is all partnered-exercises to practice body movement, to encourage reflex reactions. If they were sparring, everyone would need to be wearing protective gear all over otherwise people would get hurt very quickly... and the actual action would look very different, though probably more familiar to your "mma" eyes. This specific video is just really good exercises being taught by a master (such as the difference between parrying with your hand and arm vs parrying by moving your body with your hand as the contact point), this is NOT however, the class where he teaches them how to actually fight... there is a big difference, and if you don't know him personally, there is no real way to judge how well he fights, or even how well he can teach fighting, as this is not an example of either. Underestimating someone is the most cliche and basic of mistakes you can make...
He Will allways be a old man with a stick and remove the stick what is left slaps?
broers verband This is all for knife fights or defense against someone who pulls a knife out on you during a normal fight.
@@glassroboto and how many of them have a knife or a stick to use on them 24/7 this crap looks Good but are useless in real life better if the learn bbj or judo and kickboxing or thaiboxing or western boxing that is allaways usefull
broers verband any system is only as useful as the person can make it. I always carry a knife, and know many that do too. I don’t think it’s for everyone, but there are knife defenses in other martial arts schools too. You obviously wouldn’t only train stick fighting, even if you carried a telescoping baton or knife as edc. If you train only for sport fighting however, you will be most effective in the ring, and something like a hand to hand mugging or bar brawl. “Real life” often involves knives in more dangerous situations, though arguably most people taking this class will probably never use the things they learn here, maybe one or two will in a self defense situation so they can run away.
@@broersverband7586 Alot of them have knives on them 24/7.
I don't know why, but when he was saying "I don't want that knife on me, I don't want that" it was making me tear up because that's why we fight or learn self-defense. These things can happen. If it does, "magic" the heck out of that knife. Thanks for sharing this!
I like the last man wearing red shirt. He gave respect by shaking hands on his forehead to his master, it's a sign of respect here at our country Philippines. Long live there with your Filipino master.. proud to be Filipino.
close knife fighting, its filipino's unique contribution to martial arts. In my home town, two person both holding a machete and a knife both on their hands, tied on their feet with a 4 meter rope. Its a gentlemen's duel to the death.
There are two times in Filipino history, filipinos used this martial arts to defeat their invaders.
Very famous is that one written in our history books, that one in Mactan where Lapulapu defeat the 300 spanish soldiers lead by Magellan, on the shores of Mactan island. Lapulapu and his men used 'Kali' and machete while the spanish with their usual body armor and long sword plus their pistol(not verified yet)
The other one , NOT EVERYONE KNOWS IT except for some very few people even to those who resides there at this present time. It is in Sta.Monica,Paranaque, during the early or middle of 1800s. Limahong, the chinese pirate send an invading force to land in the shore of Sta.Monica. A fishing barrio just in-front of the terminal 1 international airport in Manila, south of Manila and North of Cavite. A strategic location if conquered, then you have Manila right in your doorstep with no support from anyone south. A resident of that barrio named 'GALO' and his men, especialized in machete and close knife fighting engaged the chinese on the shores and fought them like 'juramentados'. The chinese amazed at the tenacity of their martial arts skill retreated to their ships and never came back. That barrio is now called DON GALO in Paranaque, now famous for its tapa and fried rice. Sadly no one knows about it and Sadly it does not have anymore its beaches, now its replaced by the coastal road, reclaimed by the government of that bloody Fidel Ramos, and the reclamation area was converted into first class subdivision and sold to wealthy chinese now. NOW DONGALO DO NOT HAVE THE BEACHES ANYMORE BUT NOW BELONGS TO THE CHINESE MOTHERFUCKERS. In the barangay dongalo at present time, you will see the statue of a chinese armored soldier vs a filipino fighter holding a knife and a machete. google the place but goodluck finding the story.
The story is in Wikipedia:)
Yes true.
Nice to know history. I would love to visit Dongalo some time and see those statues. Thanks!
Don Galo lived in the 1500's. The battle of Manila in which Galo was involved happened in 1574.
King 513: mahilig ako sa hi story,saan mo get info para naman ma.double.check ko rin.I am so indignant to tho se group who deliberately t wisted,pruned,delete,etc.the Phil.history books,like what they did to Bonifacio.The ha te,insults,sarcasm,etc.hurle d to said hero is shocking.

I took this up with a young teacher i knew. I was 79 at the time .Now been training for 2 yrs. I wish that i had started as a young man but in my day it was unknown. So i did judo. then other martial arts. As i am not big but quite fast it suits me very well. I would urge any young man to take it up whether for fun, exercise or just to learn a great art.
Every girl should learn like this martial art for self defense.😀😀😀 ang galing talaga ni Maestro.👌 👌
Really great job on the part of the training partners. As a long time "demo boy" myself, really top notch quality training, guys. Respects!!
Wow!!!!👌

Jared Wihongi doing the "mano"; ultimate RESPECT to you Maori!
When you're doing it for a long time, everything flows natural.
I hope someday when somebody ask every Filipino a question the answer would be:
Are you a Filipino? - Yes
So you know FMA? - YES! of course! How cool it would be right?! 😎👍🏻 peace!....
Add it in CQC ROTC class pls. 😉
Hell yeah!
This guy’s skills are mesmerizing. Love his vids.
Sucks that not too many footage online from this man in his younger days because he was a lot quicker back then.
@Stintson True story.....Even when I trained with him in New Zealand for a couple of years in the late 80's he was dynamite.....but what a guy. Brings tears to my eyes watching him on clips like this.....he was more than world class...would have eaten Benny the Jet for breakfast. ..
I can only imagine. If he's still quick as hell now he'd be quicker even more so back then
Awesome. Watching this reminded me.of my father. He's an Arnis master. He got his training from the first Arnis master of.the Philippines. I forgo his name. He already passed away. Then my father passed away last 2008. He gave my husband couple of Arnis sticks. We.kept it.
This is why filipinos that know this technique are great in any combat and even in any contact sports bec. Of these grand masters in the Philippines
looking how fluid the students react just goes to show what a grandmaster can do to you
GM’s knowledge, speed, and technique are incredible. Much respect.
The art of Balintawak Arnis is very fast (dodgy) but it is very important that the practitioner first master the basic movements slow and not fast along with the footwork. Once the practitioner has developed a solid basics with slow movements and correct body postures, then speed and power can be applied with perfection. Thank you for this video.
Saan lugar po yan sa AURORA po ba
I remember when I was in elementary Arnis is one of my favorite subject in PE or Physical Education thanks to my Guro! Proud Filipino here!
Slapping an old man's arm with full force is no joke. But gramps handled it like its nothing.
he always tells in his stories about his younger days where his masters hit him full force with sticks, he got bruised and bloodied, so i guess those hand slaps are nothing to him now
@@sgtjoe2008 i agree I was once a student of balintawak, their previous masters were brutal the founder of balintawak style even at old age can rip your spine and he went to jail for that.
@Limau Purut yeah that's how legendary he was his name is Anciong Bacon
Remove useless P.E. and replace with self defence.. kidnapping, rape, bullying will less becoz every girls wil build confidence to defend.
Our P.E is Arnis. In college nga lang.
Agreed
🙏100%👍
I agree sir
The other side would be that future people rapist and bullys would also know what the people that they are trying to harm will do
I can only imagine how good this guy must've been 20 years ago during his prime.
I wonder too
Can only imagine his hand speed and agility when he's 80 with his constant practice !! God bless
A long time ago I went to a senior with Professor Taboada ( that is what you called the FMA Maters back then). Master Taboada was soooooo fast and prefect in his movement it was scary! But he was so humble and down to earth. GOD BLESS that BROTHER!
He’s able to transfer a lot of knowledge in a very short amount of time. I can imagine just training with him would be like drinking from a freaking fire hose
Salute to the national treasure, GM Bobby and to Aperture for capturing!
the art of boy buno, that is some wicked ancient stuff right there, the art that slay magellan.
that's only because Magellan was too stupid to attack a thousand with only a few troops, out of range for cannon support from his ship.
War in a nutshell according to Sun Tzu:.."use your many against the few,your strong against the weak..seasone d with: deception,speed,sur prise,knowing their defense plan,weakness and strength asking for God help = sure v ictory!.as Sun Tzu said: "If y ou know yourself and you k now your enemy,donnot fea r the result of the thousand battle"...
1. Its unbelieveble that this guy is 70+...2. Its so great that this guy is just that nice man and 3. Hes a Grandmaster by his Art and his heart.
Glad to see that GM Taboada getting the respect he is due. I'd love to see more with Ron Balicki and hopefully Dan Inosanto!
those saying this is all just fancy moves and not work in real knife fight....but yes, best option for anyone is too avoid a confrontation, nothing wrong with running away from a fight or knife fight but it's better to have these skills instinctively and not need it, rather than being cornered with no skill at all.
Yes and no, the fancy moves are there as demonstrations, or are just combinations of smaller things. For the long set of strikes and parries, it is just a series of blocks and riposte. In reality, you block and riposte once or you don't get to do it. That is how long a fight really lasts, especially with blades.
No, when it talks about true fight there is quick move to finish your opponent. Thats why training more like that.
Haha fancy moves daw sabi nila kalalabas ko lng ng kulungan last year dahil sa art na to eskrima. dahil napalaban kami ng pinsan ko pinsan ko namatay. Sa kalaban 4 tumba 1 sa knila napatay ko sa leeg at sa liver ang tama. haha! Fancy moves daw sabi nila. ngayon body guard ako ng isang judge. Sa lahat ng movie ng bourne identity to bourne supremacy eskrima ang gamit nilang martial arst.
Muscle memory, just like boxing. In actual confrontation you are just reacting what your eyes see.
people don't understand that doing this in a pressured situation is different, so yes it can be useless, you also have to consider the shock and fear that you will feel when you're in an actual confrontation some might shake it off but some will be terrified and petrified.
that's why actual and continuous training is important because they might eliminate the fear and give you enough confidence and muscle memory to actually react.
and that's just not applicable in kali, it's applicable in every martial art.
Man... it is always awesome to watch the Tuhons get it in... cultural knowledge and exchange is critical for the survival of the Filipino Martial Arts!
One of the living few greats in FMA. You guys are so lucky to have him. Train hard. Regards GM.

What an inspiration this man is. Seems like a great practitioner and teacher. Hope ppl appreciate him.
I wish I could learn these skills, as a Filipino and proud to learn this ancient technique, just like the Koreans with their Tae Kwon Do, the Japanese with their Judo, the Chinese with their Karate, and the Israelis with their Krav Maga...
" Kung Fu" for China
Lessons from Grand Master himself is priceless. Keep on practicing people. Kali is life.
Practicing aikido and karate for forty six years, but I've never seen anything like this....
Isn't it amazing! Very few among the billion of people can do that considering his age. It's really amazing!

@@kipallen8793 with all due respect sir...kali(arnis) and silat are 2 different martial arts
filipinos loved to be close, close enough to make a kill in a sec, that is why it is call close knife fighting. Everyone carries a machete but the spanish prohibit it, so filipinos uses rattan and hide their small knife, perfected close knife fighting for a quick kill. Spaniards never learned about it.

First time i saw this. I want to learn.
Thank you for posting this! All I see of the Balintawak videos out there are the "Magic" shows.
These people who comments that MMA/ brazilian jujitsu will beat anyone in a street fight clearly does not know what they are talking about The streets is not an Octagon, you are not fighting one enemy at a time but multiple enemies simultaneously who will shank you as soon as you pin his buddy to the ground, which is why you do not fight on the ground. There is also a reason why you fight with a weapon as fighting empty handed will clearly put you at a disadvantage unless your carrying slash proof gloves.
Are the ready to use that knife för real?
@@broersverband7586 what do you mean? I've seen a lot of people used knives for real life situation.
@@broersverband7586 dude clearly you don't know how to world works.

There is so much skill and tool development for any martial artist in just one video.
Filipinos are masters at stick fighting.. even Bruce Lee learn from them..
The Original tools were NOT "sticks"...they were swords & shields...😉
@@rockomontana2863 the training part is with sticks but it’s also applied to machetes and swords or any blades weapon

Master Bobby was awesome. Thanks for posting and thanks to all the participants.
Sadly We Filipinos prefer the imported martial arts compared to our own. Kali is more practical and deadly though.
its design to kill that's why we want other martial arts that's pure self defence,ours is not .
Yup enjoy and respect your own first then others.
We got sikaran you can try that too
@Soul Chicken Sir, karate, taekwondo, jujitsu, etc.
@@prettyboy1962 I tried sikaran before sir, it was effective kahit few months lang ako nakapag train.hehe
I hope it would be a state law that every Filipino should know this art. 1st, for self defense. 2nd, for preserving the PH heritage of authentic Filipino martial arts
I gee Arnis is one of the PE classes offered at the University of the Philippines but I took up aerobics instead. Lol! Their class was before my class and they used rattan sticks. Pretty intimidating but I now regret that I did’t take it.
@@jenniferflores6557 cool beans! 😁
Where is this school ? I hope one day I will take the courses from this amazing master
I think its in a city called balintawak in philippines. But escrima or arnis then were taught in school as a physical educ.
he is giving seminars all over the world
Wow subrang ganda nito I really really won't to know martial arts kaso Mahal Ang BAYAD kayA panood nalang ako palagi
My use to tell me that the first thing you would do when you encounter a fight is get away from it or run .. my father is a judo-karate black belt dan 2- if still persist it’s okay to use your talent -
This is a form of martial art you don't want to use in mma but in combat where survival to one's self is priority.
i live in rural mindanao Philippines. in my teens its common to fight other group of boys w/ sticks and knife is common also. a manobo tribe in mindanao has this practice called "hi-kot/mag hi-kot" when 2 individuals settle thier argument w/ a machete duel tying thier both hips w/ the rope connecting two of them so no one will run or evade the fight.. the fight will be finished when either on of them died .
Wow Master Bobby ikaw na ang pinakamagaling na nakita ko na Pilipino Master.. Sana po makapunta ako syo in the near future. Isa po akong mahilig sa martial arts mula pa noong kabataan ko..Isa akong retired na sundalo 45 years old Master gusto kong matuto sa mga kaalaman mo... Pra mkapag share din sa iba.. Saan po mismo ang address ng Gym niyo sa Manila?
Can't imagine how good is GM Bobby when he is only in his 20s or 30s. Even in his 70s still deadly
He would be too young for gm bobby now
Compared to his experience now the young bob is no mathc
This gave me chills to watch, Great teacher, props to the women kicking ass!
For Knight, Hoover, Wihonghi, etc. to show up and "you dislike" this video?
i see how he stays so quick. He continues to be hands-on. Wow. Good defensive techniques.
When the time become master, it is very easy to defeat thier opponent, quickly.
Ito tlaga ang totoong sinaryo hnd scripted proud to be a Filipino.. Huyaaa
MMA guy said to me none of that slap/knife technique works in the "cage!" Ok, but it's not made for the "Cage" it's for self defense. Simplicity of movement to get fight over with - NOT fighting for 3 rounds to win a belt.
@Jon.....exactly.....I trained with Bobby in New zealand in the late 80's....well, I tried to learn as much as I could.. .....for a couple of years......what a machine.......and what a guy. ..he was , and is,..... the real deal......breath-taking really.. he would kill any MMA fighter..any of them, even today....all over red rover , and not raise a sweat.. world class....and as he would say to me , about his style..'we never lose'.. I miss him .................
This is a self defense when your opponent has a knife....can an MMA fighter defend his self when his opponent has a knife????
Learning kali made me a much better mma fighter...plus self defense against weapons is crucial
Mabuhay GM B. Taboada,may the Good LORD JESUS bless you.
In a knife fight, it's okay to get wounded in the back of your forearm to protect your head to torso. That's the reason why Kali is a great martial art in real life situations.
I know how to use an arnis stick with a knife a little. But i know how to use arnis stick well
My grandfather taught me before he passed away ib 2016 also fought in yhe war
Practicing again and again is the best way to improve the instinct of your body
Because if the mind only is improving it involves fear,
If you improve it with your body your body will move itself because it's used to the flow,when the time comes that someone want to hurt you, you do not need to think anymore cause your body already know the flow.
for a 70+ year old man he's quick af
To become as his student is such an honor. respect.
Just imagine in his young age how fast he is..
I hope master bobby keeps alive for another 100years, so the art doesnt die with him :)
this is a real survival street fighting when your opponent have a knife
unless your "opponent" lurks in the shadows and waits until he is in your blind spot to stick you behind your back.
Beauty in motion (and a dash of magic) thankyou for sharing and inspiring us all train hard and train smart (and what a class of talent too)
1:40 Soo when you open your eyes it is easier ??
if you can block with your eyes close, how much more if your eyes are open. whats hard to understand?
Alot of people close their eyes for defensive purposes. But it is easier to dodge assaults by opening the eyes.
I thing the master's intention was to show that you can be faster with your eyes closed because you feel and instantly react, whereas with your eyes open you can't help but take in visual information and that delays your decision making. So, at first, practice with your eyes closed to develop your "muscle memory" to react quickly without thinking about it. Then open your eyes and you will be slowed down minimally and have the benefit of open eyes - seeing other things that you need to respond to (but not that first physical contact; for that you would react without delay instinctively).
In any martial art practice you must learn to act decisively without delay, and for that you must train, train, train. My sensei passed down wise words from his sensei: in a real dangerous altercation no one ever rises to the occasion, instead they fall back on their training. (This is why ALL martial art videos are rubbish in the sense that even if it's a great video of a really great technique that makes total sense to you, it is of zero real value (or actually negative value in that attempting it can get you hurt) unless you practice it over and over and over until it's second nature - a muscle reflex.)
What a lesson for the student on reflexes..! at a beginner student -in just under a minute! Amazing!
Great for self defense. not in ring. seems like there’s no kicks involved. Still Much respect for this arts.
Knife and sticks can kill while kicks depends on how well a person trains. I think this is design really for selfdefense.
This martial art was not originally made for defense but for war so it is not intended to be fought in the ring
This martial art is to kill your enemy fast with block-attack movement only.
My dream Guro... Love from PHilippines Master Bobby
Pacquiao should visit this guy. He might learn something useful for boxing.
8 world divisin champion, what more can he improve?
Too late now lol
GM bobby is a filipino why he should go there when alot of grand master are here lol..
He might have studied a little something...look at the triangle tattoo on his shoulder
@@JIMMYESTIMADAARTS you're right, pacquio does already know some of the moves, the tattoo of pacquio and GM bobby are the same.... they are guardians...
This art is an ancient of Filipino self defense founded and developed in Cebu City the oldest city in the Philippines and has a strong influenced from Indian martial arts..Kali or arnis self defense is an ancient figthing skills, this was used against the Spanish conquest in the Philippines ie: the Battle of Mactan in 1521..Magellan and his exploring sailors was defeated by the local Chieftain Lapu Lapu and his local warriors and it was believed kali and arnis technique was used against the Spaniards but instead of stick the locals used machettes as well and spears..GM Tabaoada is from Cebu City. As far I know..Kali and Arnis practioners in the city is almost gone. Most Filipino now who studied martial arts are so influenced by the Chinese, Japanese & Korean Martial arts nowadays..
sorry but in real life people dont attack your shoulders they swing for your face
the shoulder represents the head...the exercise is not actual fight ...it is obviously an exercise to develop speed and reflexes just like pad work in boxing..
Geez its a reference point. Simple response to reference points and its variations. You shouldn't dismiss what you dont understand.
If your logic was accurate why use speed bags? Or heavy bags and focus mitts.
Sorry but you also don't know nothing get a life
I suggest take some time to study self defense,you are going to understand what this exercise is for.
AJ lawless try to fight him.if u want...
