Escrima, also spelled eskrima, refers to a class of Filipino martial arts that utilize sticks and swords as fighting instruments. Since the martial art was originally taught to villagers to defend themselves against foreign invaders and other villages, escrima fighting is traditionally simplified, with simple village folk physically or otherwise unable to learn complicated or flashy fighting arts. However, escrima fighting is not simple; in fact, beyond the basic skills lies a fighting art and a skill set that takes years and years to master.

In this free video series, our expert Tres Tew will teach you all about escrima stick fighting. He will teach you how to block with an escrima stick, how to strike with an escrima stick, how to do a shoulder crank with an escrima stick, and how to do a push block with an escrima stick. Mr. Tew will also teach you how to defend against a knife stab, a hip choke, knife thrust, bo, staff, and spear using a knife. Tres will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of fighting with one escrima stick or two, and give you useful and important safety tips for training with escrima sticks.
