KALI ESCRIMA

Kali is one of the most comprehensive martial art weapon systems available. Encompassing an 

entire spectrum of weaponry and dating back to ninth century Philippines, Kali techniques are 

meant to be learned and applied multiple ways, from stick or sword, to daggers, to flexible weapons. 

In addition, Kali involves sophisticated "empty hands" techniques, kicks, knees, sweeps, throws and 

joint locking techniques. Because of this diversity there is always something new to be learned 

while training in Kali!

This highly efficient, combat proven art emphasizes an understanding of motion, range, body 

angulation, timing and footwork. This art is practiced by many masters well into their 70’s, and it 

remains highly effective. The system of Filipino martial arts taught at the Syracuse Martial Arts 

Academy is the method taught at the Inosanto Academy in Los Angeles, California.
