Who picks up the sticks
Eskrima fits if...
- You've watched eskrima and want to do it.
- You trained Kali or Arnis once and want it back.
- You train jiu jitsu here and want a second art.
Learn it in person
You can't learn it from a video.
You've seen it done, sticks moving faster than you can follow. But a video can't fix your hands.

Eskrima came first. Kalani picked up the sticks at 8, then boxing and kajukenbo, then jiu jitsu, which he has trained for more than 20 years.

Is eskrima the same as Kali or Arnis?
Yes. They're names for the same Filipino stick fighting art. Here it covers bladed, blunt and empty-hand work.
Can I do eskrima and jiu jitsu?
Yes. Coach K teaches both, and the jiu jitsu classes run on the weekly schedule.
How much does it cost?
