(17 years in Arnis, here) - the answer is 'yes, but.." 1. the "basic blocks and strikes" I would define as "stick-boxing" - which acts as the core of your technique, but doesn't define the whole of it. 2. By challenging yourself with a more complex technique, you can use it as a diagnostic tool for your underlying fundamentals - ie, if something starts breaking apart when you do it faster or more complicated, you know you need to work on that thing. This is easier to see in a more complicated drill than a simple one. 3. More complex drills tend to be aspirational for a student - ie, they'll get bored of doing the basic drills, and want to work on something different. Which is related to #2 - you work on the more complex thing for a bit, then come back to the fundamentals to improve your core technique. 4. Related to the above: most complex techniques are just simple techniques used in a fast, specific sequence. (ie, a specific hand-check or quick grapple, combined with a simple upslash, can turn into a disarm.) 5. Complex techniques from one art can very well be the simple techniques of another - studying grapples and throws in Arins, for example, really end up being judo/wrestling throws, but with a stick in your hand for mechanical advantage. Thus, while they end up being complex if you come in from the Arnis side, they end up just being a (relatively) simple thing from the wrestling side - which is really an argument for cross-training, honestly. (especially the grappling side of things, at least in my experience.) 6. Forms - depending on how they're set up, they can be a useful solo training and visualization tool. Again, they're something you go back to after you practice the basics, to see how you have improved. 7. Combos - assuming a school has a set that they practice: they're usually based on solid body mechanic fundamentals. (A double-jab/cross/hook/uppercut, for example, is set up that way due to how hips rotate and feet move and how most opponents react to being hit.) In arnis, a lot of the combos are based around the triangle, which is really what happens when you take circular motion (ie, the kind that your shoulder/elbow/wrists are good at), and turn them into linear strikes (such as a slash.) 8. Combos II - combos are also usually necessary because most students are really bad at multi-strikes: they tend to do only one or two, and then stop. As such, a lot of combos are taught simply to get the student into the habit of throwing more than one strike. (This is again, similar to why they teach combos in boxing.) 9. Footwork - as with combos, these sorts of drills (simple to complex) exist mainly to get the student to MOVE - because there's a general temptation to charge straight forward, hit, and then just kinda stand there. Or run backwards, without considering side-stepping. It's a hard habit to break, so instructors spend a great deal of time figuring out how to train that out. 10. Finally (just to cap myself at 10 reasons), if you can get a single advanced technique (such as, say, a specific disarm that you can do semi-consistently), you will have a massive advantage over someone who doesn't. Personally, I have 3 of these that I can do - a basic stickgrab/disarm off a blocked forehand strike, a stick grab/armpit tuck off of a blocked backhand strike, and a nice hand-pick/head-fake/arm pick that I tend to use any time I spar. 11. (and just to add one more) - most competitions are between people who are sparring at their own level, and only have a few years of experience. You're unlikely to see anything fancy in this scenario. In contrast, if I go all-out against a white-belt (which I rarely do, and only with their consent, because doing that without warning is a jerk move): yes: I can do more impressive stuff than I normally would. (not TOO much more impressive - but more than strikes; I can usually pull off a hand-check or disarm or something similar.) With that in mind: your question also implies that you want something very specific out of Arnis - probably someing to do with self-defense or sparring. And that's fine: it's a perfectly valid reason to study it. However, there are many OTHER reasons to study a martial art: 1. self-defense 2. competition 3. exercise 4. artistic expression 5. cognitive development (ie, self-discipline) 6. professional use-of-force 7. Cultural exploration Simply studying the basics will serve you well in all those categories, although in particular they'll be useful in competition and professional use-of-force (if you're a cop, bouncer, or soldier), although you'll likely need specific training tailored to your needs. However, when it comes to studying the basics for self defense? Eh...sorta. ACTUAL self-defense is almost all strategic, intellectual, and social: you can get most of it from a book, and most of it boils down to "don't hang around violent people, don't go to dangerous places where you may run into violent people, and if you do run into dangerous people you should know how to de-escalate and if necessary run." (Really, that'll work 99% of the time, which is significantly better than any technique you'll learn in a martial arts class.) But studying the basics will get you some benefit, if only by allowing you to carry yourself with more confidence, as well as having a good understanding of how the human body reacts to pain (assuming you have heavy sparring in your class.) Anyway, that's a short answer to your question. Feel free to let me know if you have any more.

Thank you for your well thought, in depth answer to my question. Much respect and very much appreciated.

That competition is the real thing..

No fancy drills... everybody loves kung fu fighting

Those are accurate targeted strikes. Imagine if those strikes are swords/knives, limbs would be flying with those accurate strikes. The fanciness you see in training is in case the enemy can come closer to you without getting harmed. Then the reflexes of your training comes in.

10-15k ata ung isang set lods! Bali ung dalawang set red and blue from head to foot n yan mga more or less 20k sa stix yan lods!

Pugay din po!

showing of artistry lang yun kaya feeling mo mayabang na agad❤❤❤

Not just randomly swinging sticks, more who scored first. Timing, distance, footwork, evasion. Not as much blocking but their technique is based on whatever rules for the tournament. This more close to realistic stick fight if no headgear compared to wekaf style tournament.

People who haven't experienced competing and playing arnis Will never understand

Of course they are professional.. simulate it in real life… are you not keeping off distance?

In Luzon its known as Arnis, in Visayas its Eskrima, and in Mindanao its Kali. Each of the three regions have their own variations of the martial art/sport. And the variations don’t stop there. For example: Eskrima has its own variations too! Such as Abanico and Doce Pares among many others. In the end, each variation was made with different specialties in mind. If whats in the video isnt ‘how kali is done’ its probably not even Kali! Even I don’t recognize it! And thats ok! Even with all these variations the true purpose of learning the art of stickfighting, however you may call it, is for self defence. Don’t shame people just because they weren’t taught the exact same way🙃~

No in Mindanao it is not Kali and never was, only the FilAm arnis people called it Kali and labelled it as from Mindanao, i am from Mindanao and i am an FMA patriot. No local dialect has the word Kali as a bladed fighting art. Naa diri Kalibang ra. In the muslim areas they use the word Kuntaw but bisaya people of Mindanao call it just eskrima/ arnis. And tournament fights like this make the FMA look ineffective as there is even not a single defense or disarming attempt.. its like just hit hit hit or a chicken fight, murag sabong manok.

Embarrassing do you even practice this art? Pilipino ako and alam ko na designed ang arnis para pumatay kaya ito ang best format, why? Kasi ang target is vitals, sa digmaan pag nataga mo ang kalaban wag mo ng babalikan kasi madami ka pang target. Yung tinutukoy mo ba yung ratratan ng hampas? Yun yung bulok kasi disregard effective defense, tignan mo bigyan mo sila ng live stick tas walang armor ganto din gagawin ng mga yan

@@dockilat5576 Woah, really? That's pretty cool! I was just relying on what I was told so it's really nice to get info from a local!

@@potato3018 Funny you should say that Kase alam mo ba kung bakit ginagamit na natin Ang stick Ngayon para sa arnis? Kase modernized na Tayo. Hindi na Tayo gumagamit Ng mga espada and if you do end up killing someone on the streets today chances are you'll get arrested kung pumapatay ka Ng tao at Wala kang maayos na rason kung bakit pinatay mo siya. Ang mindset na iyon is best reserved for extreme cases or when you're backed into a corner and your life is at stake. It's nice to see your opinion on this tho, it's interesting to know that people are still getting taught to kill rather than simply preserving ones own life🤔
