I use lacrosse gloves with reinforced thumb cups for protection in randori. Hockey gloves has more protection but lacrosse gloves has a good balance with protection and handling.
I think there was some mistake in the translation, the term "fencing" used here is probably meant to be "Escrima" for the Filipino martial arts, also called Eskrima, which got its origin from the Spanish and French word for fencing(esgrima/escrime). The term Arnis was an evolution during Spanish colonial rule when the natives were banned by the Spanish authorities from practicing their blade based martial arts so they hid their martial arts training in dances and theater plays called "Moro moro" that were performed during festivals to entertain the churchgoing people, where great battles between the European Christians and the Islamic Moors were re-enacted by Filipino players onstage using sticks as weapons while wearing colorful harnesses in their arms hence the term "Arnes de Mano"(harness of the hand) which later evolved to "Arnis de Mano" and today, just "Arnis" to refer to the stick based arts.
Check out the main branch of the Villabrille-Largusa Kali system of Master Lindsey Largusa (czcams.com/video/Io8_Hg5KiYM/video.htmlsi=gLLLLDul6TMC2B3H). That video shows 12 basic strikes, but most importantly you can see Lindsey at then end of the video use footwork, body position, and double stick of a Kali man. Lindsey’s father, Ben Largusa (heir of Floro Villabrille’s kali and head grandmaster), systematized Floro’s martial art.
balintawak is a style. balintawak is primarily a single stick style. dependig on the styles they would have different focus. for example pekiti and kalis ilustrisimo love testing their art with sparring. This guy's master is with i believe that's the style shown in this video 'KI'. Also, kali is technically a style of silat that has evolved into its own through exposure to the different enemies the filipinos have faced. The Largo Mano style was used and improved during WW2 against fighting the samurai swords.
Actually, to my knowledge, Silat is a Malayan art that was spread and taught in Southeast Asia mostly among the Muslim countries including Muslim southern Mindanao in the Philippines. Kali was a term popularized in the U.S. by Filipino immigrants who taught the blade based & focused version of the Filipino arts. Eskrima and Arnis are the indigenous Filipino martial arts that use blades and sticks for fighting. While there may be some influences between systems, Silat and the Filipino arts like Kali/Eskrima/Arnis are totally different arts. As for the Karambit or Kerambit, it is an indigenous Malayan/Indonesian weapon used in Silat that was later adopted by Kali and Filipino Martial Arts practitioners due to its compatibility with the FMA techniques, but it is not an indigenous Filipino weapon, only the Baraw and Balisong are considered indigenous Filipino blades. As a matter of fact, urban legend has it that the reason Forge in Fire blade icon Doug Marcaida got kicked out of the Pekiti Tirsia Organization by its president and founder Leo Gaje many years ago was because of a disagreement over the use of the Karambit, Doug kept insisting on using a Karambit in his FMA training curriculum which the founder frowned upon insisting that it wasn't a Filipino weapon.
This is NOT Villabrille-Largusa Kali. Watanabe describes some basic history of GM Villabrille, and by inference, attempts to be associated with VL Kali. "...that's how his master learned it and how I learned it. " ( ambiguous statement ) There was no other "master". Demonstrated a sinawali pattern similar to VLK but added numerous strikes because of the lightweight foam sticks and finished it with a Japanese flourish. Quick and flashy but NOT VLK. There must be bodily-kinesthetics that is required in the performance of the style to fit the theories and principles of Villabrille Largusa Kali, None of that is evident here. There are however, some minor useful elements.
Black Widow from Marvel n Nightwing from DC using this art as their weapon
