Filipino Stick Fighting Techniques is the authoritative guide to
Cabales Serrada Escrima a stick fighting art with its roots in
Escrima, the national martial art of the Philippines. The
popularity of these techniques has dramatically increased since
they were used extensively by Matt Damon in action-packed fight
scenes in the Jason Bourne films. Developed by Grandmaster Angel
Cabales when he came to the U.S., Cabales Serrada Escrima is a
distinct system emphasizing close-quarter combat using highly
effective stick-fighting moves in unarmed as well as knife fighting
situations. This book offers a clear presentation of the basic
strikes, blocks, counters, and disarms unique to this style of
martial art as well as explaining how and why the techniques work
and when to use them. Angel Cabales was a pioneer in the Filipino
Martial Arts and the first teacher of Escrima in the U.S. He
trained and certified Mark V. Wiley, the author of this book.
Darren G. Tibon, an Escrima Grandmaster, was also trained by
Cabales and has contributed a new foreword to the book. This book
contains: Personal accounts of Grandmaster Angel Cabales and how he
developed his system The dynamics of body positioning, distance
control, and both single-stick and empty-hand defensive methods A
comprehensive set of training drills for practitioners at different
levels. Extensively illustrated with over 300 photos and detailed
step-by-step instructions, this book lays the foundation for not
just learning the system of Cabales Serrada Escrima, but
understanding the traditions and philosophy of the art.
