More fun for the martial arts fans! Kali, Escrima and Arnis are all essentially the same martial art, all originating from different areas of the Philippines was originally used as a method of fighting off the invading Spanish. All of these utilise weapons such as sticks, knives, and swords. The typical Kali/Escrima weapon is the Escrima sticks. Techniques without weapons also taught include kicking, striking and grappling. A good workout which also improves coordination and reflexes. The first and only in Shanghai!
