MODERN ARNIS
Filipino Martial Arts with rattan sticks and training knives. Learn how attacks actually work — distance, angles, and pressure.
Program Overview
Modern Arnis is the system of Filipino Martial Arts founded by the late Remy Presas. It is a complete system of self-defense that focuses on the use of the rattan stick, the blade, and empty-hand techniques.
At EVX, we teach Modern Arnis as both a standalone discipline and as a core component of our integrated combatives system. You will learn the flow of combat, the geometry of angles, and the principles of timing and distance that apply across all ranges of fighting.
