Warriors Eskrima is a synthesis of various styles and systems studied by Grand Master Abner G Pasa of Cebu City in the Philippines. GM Pasa is a gifted individual, with the spirit of a warrior and the unusually analytical intelligence of a philosopher. He had serious combative experience (as a police officer in Cebu, and in response to challengers). His system integrates intelligence, cunning and awareness with technical depth and range.
The students learn weapons, striking and kicking, joint locks, chokes and strangles, trapping and unbalancing, etc. – a full range of martial skills. Instruction generally takes the course of learning single stick first; then knife defences, and the basics of empty hand skills; then combination weapons (double stick, stick and knife, and sword and knife).
