    Kali is not meant as a self defense unlike most martial arts nowadays, Kali is very aggressive and is more meant to kill rather than just incapacitate. That's why it's very rarely used in mma and more practiced by the military rather than an ordinary person.

    Filipino martial art is a deadly martial art. I honestly think this is one of many reasons it was not romanticized and being practiced/taught in a larger scale. It is not attached to any religion, philosophy but its an animal form of what humans can do with tools in order to kill. Tribes back then are head hunterers and the terrain is an endless jungle.

      Historically speaking this started with the Spanish. The Spanish banned Filipinos from any kind of fighting culture. They banned them to own weapons, there was a law where if you had a blade with a sharp point it had to be cut square so you can't stab with it. Guns were banned to own. This in turn affected their colonies that got raided through pangayaw by the Moro. The Spanish made the Filipinos helpless because they know the same thing that could have helped them in defense can also be used against them.

    Filipino Kali has lots of similarities with Indonesian Silat and Bokator from Cambodia.
    There´s a theory that all these styles originated from one common martial art, spread all over S. East Asia and then every region modified it and made their own version.
    Kali has become very popular in action movies, because it looks very "cinematic".
    For example, the sword fighting choreography in the last "Dune" movie is based mostly on Kali techniques, Netflix´s Daredevil used Kali stick fighting ( together with Indonesian Silat) and of course Bruce Lee showcased Kali in his movies, because his student, Daniel Inosanto is a Filipino Kali master.

It's movements can easily flow from weapon's based attacks to open hand strikes, disarms, punches from close range, control distance with kicks, joint manipulation, it literally has all the skills and techniques needed in fighting at whatever scenario or predicament you're in.

The various eastern arts probably looked identical when you add weapons. You really traveled far and worked hard for this video. I appreciate that fact. The Artist you were demonstrating with was a nice guy, but I believe not to be trifled with.. You have great insight on the arts, I can only imagine what some of your travels have been.

    I agree, the practice of martial arts was banned or forbidden by the colonizers (Spanish/Japanese) back in the day due to the fear of rebellion hence later on forgotten. There are still some living masters but they choose who to teach. One of Bruce Lee's training partners is a Filipino-American martial artist Daniel Arca Inosanto. Rumor has it that he even went to the Philippines to learn nunchucks.

Karate obviously has some Kung Fu influences, even if it is only it's spirit, that Asian hard style, but maybe it really started from the other side of the globe, and that discover would be amazing!

      Two of my Aikido and Aikijitsu partners decided to branch out to Wing Chun and Kali (one of my friends was half Filipino, half Dutch). The young man that taught the Kali was blindingly fast. I remember the sayings 'first in!' and 'don't try to hit the vitals that require long reaches, when the attacker moves on you, you disable the limb he has presented and eventually the fight ends because he hasn't got enough working limbs'. Ramel Espiritu (sp) was the teacher. I watched him show disarmed with sticks, bare hands, and flip knives. At slow speed, it was easy to see what was happening. At 75%, I could barely catch the move, and at 100% it was a blur which left my friends stinging and their stick or knife off on the ground somewhere. I have a LOT of respect for Kali and for Filipinos overall for so many reasons.

And of course the indigenous merged with the Han people eventually. This can also be proved in linguistics, some Fujian dialect has a few words can not be found etymology from ancient Chinese, but those words can be found in Southeast Asian languages. I think it was the indigenous people who retained the ancient form of martial arts and were influenced by Shaolin Kung Fu and eventually formed the Southern Chinese Kung Fu.

    Welcome to the world of our Filipino Martial Arts. Your friend’s teacher, Grand Master Ernie Presas if one of the most important figure heads in our culture cause he and his brother Prof. Remy Presas were the ones who were able to spread the art by inserting it into the educuational curriculum of our nation. He is also a good friend of my Teacher. GM Presas travelled to Japan and stayed them for a long time. As i understand he learned karate and Kenjutsu there as well as him teaching. This is why as it is taught in the educational system of the Philippines are done in forms or katas called Anyo (meaning form in Filipino)
    The term Hubod (hoo-bod) is a Visayan (local dialect) that does mean entangle but it is spelled as Hubad. Though Hubad in the Tagalog dialect (more wisely used) does mean strip or get naked.
    What you got here was the real deal. Among other things, one of the most distinct difference bet FMA and other arts is that the art is taught with weapons first. Long weapons to be exact because that’s how you engage in a battle. You learn the shorter weapons and later on unarmed combat incase you loose or break your weapon, revert to your smaller back-up or worse, resort to disarming an opponent to survive or go unarmed combat. It’s good to see that he taught you how we Filipinos teach it.
    I’ve been watching a lot of your stuff as a FMA practitioner and teacher cause i see a lot of parallelisms of FMA and Karate. It’s good to see you see the same.

      @@sopwithcamelus You’re welcome. One must remember that the Philippine culture is a blade culture much like most of our South-East Asians neighbors. As such, the use of sticks as weapons came very late with in the 17th-18th century. The stick as we know it now (dimensions and all) were actually a walking cane, the Spanish term Baston or Cane, which every gentleman from the lowest farmer to the elite always carried. The use of sticks was that more recent as well as the incorporations of Espada y Daga or Sword and Dagger which was an adaptation from Spanish Destreza (swordplay). According to oral tradition (which was the only way the art was taught, unfortunately). The art was taught through need. If spears were available, they studied spears first. If the tribe was rich enough to buy armor and shields, they would do that too. This is probably one of the reasons why the weapons vary so much from region to region through-out the archipelago while maintaining a specific trade mark for the blades, the curved/hook pommel, reminiscent of a bird’s beak. Bathala’s bird who watched over the actions of men...as so the myth tells.

      I remember arnis being taught to us in our sophomore year. The forms shown in the video were more advanced, because we only did the "introductory" lessons. Nonetheless, we learned how to effectively grip our arnis (the sticks that we use), block with them and hit with power. Thank you for sharing this valuable insight! Until now, I did not know that Grand Master Paras was the pioneer of spreading it into our schools. Salamat po sa kanya (I give my thanks to him)!

    The thing with Kali, is historically, it was taught to outsiders a lot. As long as you were a friend of the family or trusted, you were taught.
    Traditionally in Karate and Kung fu, it was always "closed door", no outsiders.
    But like you have seen, due to trade between the nations in olden times, what worked, was cross pollinated. The technics that were applicable to real time combat, exists in all the systems.
    There is actually a big tie between Spanish fencing and Kali's espada y daga.

    Great video, Jesse!
    As you already know by this time, both karate and many southern families of kung fu can trace their roots to Shaolin.
    It was really cool that you showed the "it's dark outside" searching technique. The movement reminded of some things we do in wing chun. It can be when you want to change the bridge from inside to outside of the opponent's arm or vice versa. But there is also something called the "emergency hand", using the same pattern, for when someone controls your forearm and you want to regain space.
    I wish great success and prosperity to you, Jesse! ❤

    U could say Kali is being 'modernized' here in the Philippines to what we now know as Arnis. U were able to see how deadly kali is; in the time of our ancestors, death or receiving fatal injuries during training was common. After the colonial times, Remy Presas, the founder of modern arnis, developed it to make it 'safer' for training. Instead of killing purposes like back then, Arnis now focuses more on self-defense, countering, disarming etc the enemy, and to develop brotherhood/camaraderie between the trainees or respect to their seniors.
    It's been included in our PE classes at school (tho that depends on the school itself, my senior high only recently added arnis last year while my college has had it for years now).
