Galleon Clan Escrima

h are based on the concepts and principles of the double blade (Sinawali) sub-set and the 18 total strikes. The double blade (Sinawali) sub-set consists of 25 foundational techniques and 10 partner drills as well as a demonstration form. The single blade sub-set consists of 3 foundational techniques off each formal strike. Several other techniques are taught based off the foundational techniques using the vairous concepts within the system. The stick/sword and dagger (Espada y Daga) sub-set is taught utilizing a knife in the offhand in place of an empty hand usually used for checking or parrying. The staff (Sibat) sub-set is taught on principles of corto, medio, and largo range fighting. The empty hand fighting (Pangamot) is taught with the principles of single blade or knife fighting since the ranges and weapons used in Escrima are interchangable for smooth transition from weapons to empty hand fighting.
