Dynamic and flexible, with a wide range of training methods it can be practised by students of all ages and levels of fitness. Well known and respected as a highly practical weapons-based system, Eskrima is practised worldwide by civilians, law enforcement personnel and special units within the military. Eskrima usies training weapons [rattan sticks and daggers] from the earliest stages, alongside purely unarmed techniques. These training methods have been found particularly effective at increasing co-ordination and reflexes, providing a fast tract to developing the qualities needed for practical self-defense. The instructional section illustrates how the Eskrima martial artist is able to succeed in a wide range of combat situations involving fighting with both weapons and open-hands. Techniques, two-person flow drills, self-defense applications, training with specialized equipment, the philosophy of the art and 'self-defense and the law' are all covered in depth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46582861005010,"sku":"9781847971524","price":32.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46582861037778,"sku":"8f4b9afa-15fb-3f69-b3d3-ab094f4dc2bc","price":17.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_ab1e064e-8554-4cf4-a4a0-fdfe5f84c433.jpg?v=1763438696","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/eskrima","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
