5.0 out of 5 stars A brief comment, December 31, 2006

This review is from: Modern Arnis By Remy Presas: Vol. 3 (DVD)

This is the 3rd volume in the three volume set by guru Presas. It continues the format of the previous two volumes. In this video, he covers more advanced techniques, including joint locks, stick drills, empty-hand, and knife techniques. It seems to be done in a big hotel meeting room on-stage, with his students filing out from behind the stage as he demonstrates various techniques. The pace is fairly brisk, so be aware of that and that it might be too much too fast for anyone other than an experienced student, although I don't think you would need to be an advanced student or black belt. There is a great deal of information in these three videos. Although this is not meant to be a systematic presentation of the system, you get a lot of material covering everything from empty hand to stick to joint locks to dumog (Filipino wrestling) to the knife. The videos are also closer to one hour long, compared to many of the his other videos where you pay more for only half an hour of material. I think these are a good value for the price. I also reviewed the first volume in this set, which has more detailed comments if you're interested.

This review is from: Modern Arnis By Remy Presas: Vol. 3 (DVD)

These videos make the art of Arnis, also known as Kali or Escrima, easy to understand. He has a way of making you very confident in your ability to learn his art. He has a very humble common-sense approach to training and you will quickly grasp the fundamentals. I love how he can show you one simple movement, then go endlessly showing how one technique if mastered, can be a handful in itself using it over and over until you start to think "imagine if I knew 10 of these principles" and hungry for more detail.

On a positive note, he does offer a more complete training set on his website along with his son's work. This DVD is a rite of passage for any new Arnis, Kali or Escrima student.
