Self-Defense (Arnis) P.E. 2: Activity 1-1

Arnis evolved over centuries in the Philippines. During Spanish colonization from 1521-1564, Filipinos focused on bladed weapons for self-defense. The Spanish later banned the practice of Kali in 1764. In 1873, the fighting system was renamed "Arnis." After Philippine independence, the National Arnis Association of the Philippines was formed in 1975 to unite Arnis groups. Arnis became the Philippines' national martial art through a 2009 law mandating its inclusion in schools.

SELF-DEFENSE (ARNIS)

P.E. 2

Activity 1-1
- With the use of graphical representation of your choice, illustrate the evolution of
Arnis.

Year 1521-1564 the time of colonization of the


Spaniards, during those periods it was focused on
bladed weapons fighting.

Years have passed by Spain was able to colonize


the Archipelago thru the use of religion and what
was then regarded as modern weapons such as
Muskets and cannons. The Spaniards claimed the
Archipelago and named it “Philippines” in honor of
the King Philip of Spain. This was the start of the
dark age of Kali, in the year 1764 the Spanish
overlords banned the practice of Kali to the natives.

In 1873 the fighting system was renamed


“Arnis” derived from the word Arnes which
means colorful trapping on defensive armors
used on the Moro-Moro plays.
After the war ended and peace took its path in 1975
then Major Favian Ver also noted enthusiast and
practitioners of Arnis formed the National Arnis
Association of the Philippines (NARAPHIL) with
the objective to unite all Arnis group in the
Philippines.

Arnis is a Philippines’ national martial art or


sport, After President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo
signed the Republict Act. No. 9850 in 2009.The act
mandates the Department of Education to include
the sport as a Physical Education course. Arnis will
be included among the priority sports in Palarong
Pambansa (National Games) beginning 2010.

Activity 1 – 2
- What is the importance of Self-defense?

It is really importance in every situation and according to my search, Self-defense


classes can help students build confidence in themselves. They can develop self-
discipline, improve their physical condition and street awareness. Self-defense
can aid students particularly when they are walking alone at night after classes.
That's the time when students are most vulnerable to attack. The most important
aspect of self-defense training and, really, it's primary purpose. By training, you prepare
your mind and body to respond to threats against your safety or your life. ... That's why
self-defense is important. It lets you take charge and defuse, de-escalate, or defend
yourself and those around you.
Feedback/Reflection

I have learned that Arnis is a self-defense and really helpful for us to keep safe when we
are around. It improves our physical condition and street awareness wherever we go, this is also
building our self-discipline and prepare our mind and body to respond to a threat against of our
lives.
I still wish to ask my teacher about the evolution of Arnis for more clarifications about
the topic.
