T.A.M.A Combat Systems / Garimot Arnis

Arnis, otherwise also known as Eskrima or Kali, is very much a mental game as well as physical. The cerebral aspects of the sport are highlighted as one attempts to quickly analyze the adversary's style while devising a means by which to counter it. In addition to analytical thinking, Arnis requires decisive thinking and the courage to assume the offensive when the opportunity presents itself. Good sportsmanship is an integral part of the Arnis tradition. Arnis was for many years considered a sport for gentlemen only and participants were expected to conduct themselves accordingly. Much of this "flavor" still exists today. Arnis de mano has been proven in combat throughout the many wars in Philippine history and is held in high regard by law enforcement officers around the world. The serious student will find the knowledge and skill gained through consistent and dedicated practice an invaluable addition to an existing martial arts repertoire.

Why Arnis?

• We start off with weapon based work. Training will include single stick, double stick, and knife. This highly elevates threat levels and makes the student face fears immediately. In addition, coordination is challenged immensely and the student becomes quickly aware of what areas need study.
• You will quickly learn and become comfortable with your abilities and achieve martial skill in a shorter time span. Initially taught in a methodical and slow manner to maintain safety, serious combative training will quickly elevate as your comfort and skill level rises.
• You will be prepared to deal with serious life threatening situations and how to deal with weaponed attack. Women benefit greatly from the study as they learn how to utilize skill as opposed to brute force
• Principles behind the weapon work translate perfectly to empty-hand applications
• Meticulous study of body angles allows for your maximum safety while being able to be engaged in combative range.
