Is the system of Filipino martial arts founded by the late
Remy Presas as a self-defense system . His goal was to
create an injury-free training method as well as an
effective self-defense system in order to preserve the
older Arnis systems . The term Modern Arnis was used
by Remy Presas’ younger brother Ernesto Presas to
describe his style of Filipino martial arts ; since 1999
Ernesto Presas called his system Kombatan . It is derived
principally from the traditional Presas family style of the
Bolo(Machete) and the stick-dueling art of Balintawak
Eskrima , with influences from other Filipino and
Japanese martial arts .

One of the characteristics of Filipino martial arts is
the use of weapons from the very beginning of
training and Modern Arnis is no exception. The
primary weapon is the rattan stick, called a cane
or baston (baton), which varies in size, but is
usually about 28 inches (71 cm) in length. Both
single and double stick techniques are taught,
with an emphasis on the former; unarmed
defenses against the stick and against bladed
weapons (which the stick is sometimes taken to
represent) are a part of the curriculum.
TRAINING
6. Isa (pronounced as i-sah or e-sah; which literally means "one")
Dalawa (pronounced dah-la-wah; as literally means "two")
Tatlo (pronounced as tat-loh; literally means "three")
Apat (pronounced as Ah-pat; literally means "four")
Lima (pronounced as li-mah;literally means "five")
Anim (pronounced as ah-neem; literally means "six")
Pito (pronounced as pi-toh; literally means "seven")
Walo (pronounced as "wah-loh"; literally means "eight")
Siyam (pronounced as si-yam; literally means "nine")
Sampu (pronounced as sam-po; literally means "ten")
Labing-isa (in some organizations) (pronounced as lah-bing-i-
sah; literally means "eleven")
Belt Ranks
7.
Many groups use a "zero-degree" black belt rank as a
probationary stage that comes before Isa. The actual
name of the ranks is gender-specific. For men the
rank is referred to asLakan (Tagalog for male) while
for women it is referred to as Dayang (Tagalog for
"female").Thus, a first degree black belt in Modern
Arnis would be referred to as either aLakan Isa or
a Dayang Isa, depending on his or her gender. The
"zero-degree" rank, if used, is referred to as
simply Lakan or Dayang. The black belt is
traditionally bordered with red; however, some
groups use a plain black belt
8.
In addition to rank, titles such as Datu,
Commissioner, Master of Tapi-Tapi, Senior
Master, Punong Guro, etc., have occasionally been
granted to certain high-ranking individuals. The title
Guro is typically given to all Lakans and Dayangs.

opponent, rotation of the body and the proper turning radius,
recognition of one’s center of gravity, eye-hand coordination,
target perception and recognition, increased ambidexterity,
