Introduction
Arnis is not just about drills and making sure you hit your partner’s baton. The drills are there so you could get use to the attack and counter-attack movements. During sparing, or in real-life settings where you will need to defend yourself, the techniques also need wits. It’s not just raw force and twirling the sticks, there’s finesse and technical aspects which require creativity. You have to think fast and be creative when attacking and blocking, which really boils down to how imaginative you can be when combining the movements.
