Behind any effective martial art are sets of working principles. That is, a fundamental truth, or law,\u00a0from which applications of movements are based. Here, we’re presenting a look at the Abenir Kalis system and its set of principles for effective application. This is an excerpt from Bong Abenir’s new book, Eskrima Street Defense<\/em><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n The Abenir Kalis system is primarily\u00a0a blade based martial art which\u00a0derives its bulk of techniques and fighting\u00a0principles from the arts of Kalis Ilustrisimo,\u00a0Yaw-Yan and Silat. The art\u2019s founder is this\u00a0book\u2019s author, Maestro Bong Abenir, who\u00a0has fused these systems in order to come up\u00a0with his own training system. He has also\u00a0added techniques and strategies discovered\u00a0as effective during his live sparring. Most\u00a0of the techniques that were effective during a full sparring session without\u00a0protective gear were thoroughly observed by him, to see whether their\u00a0efficiency was replicated many times and would, therefore, be included as\u00a0part of the repertoire of Abenir Kalis techniques. Abenir believes that during\u00a0a fight, wherein everything is sudden and happening so fast, that you may not\u00a0have time to think but must instead rely on your quick reaction to respond\u00a0to any attack or situation you are in. What\u2019s more, the empty hand fighting\u00a0system could be practiced anytime at any stage or level of the practitioner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
