Whats the difference between arnis, eskrima, kali, escrima, eskrido, V-jitsu, etc?
A. These are all Filipino martial arts with similar footwork, stick and knife work, ideas of flow, etc. Basically the differences are minor, more dependent on the teacher than anything else. For instance, Professor Presas used 12 striking angles, his brother Ernesto uses 14. Escrido and V-jitsu are systems combining arnis/kali/escrima with jujitsu.
