Арнис
Training covers empty-hand self-defense (striking, locking, throwing, etc.) as well as the trademark single and double stick techniques of the Filipino martial arts. Other aspects of the art include "espada y daga" (sword and dagger fighting), "sinawali" (double stick weaving patterns), and "tapi-tapi" (locking drills with the stick). In addition to partner drills, Modern Arnis includes the use of "anyo" (kata), solo forms both with and without the stick. Emphasis is placed on fitting the art in with a student's previous training ("the art within your art"), smoothly reacting to changing situations in the fight ("the flow"), and countering the opponent's attempt to counter strikes directed at him ("tapi-tapi"). Practitioners are called "arnisadors" or Modern Arnis players.
