How does a Philippine Arnis Stick work?
The practitioner grips the stick near one end and uses it to execute strikes, blocks, and disarms against an opponent or training partner. The 26-inch length allows for single-handed techniques while providing sufficient reach for offensive and defensive movements.
Training typically involves solo drills, partner exercises, and sparring. The stick serves as a training analog for bladed weapons, teaching practitioners angles of attack, footwork, and coordination that transfer to empty-hand combat and edged weapon defense.
