Combat / movement type
The Pekiti-Tirsia Kali is a compact and comprehensive combat system. It contains all phases and distances of self-defense and self-assertion:
- From early detection and avoidance to ranged combat to combat at medium distance to close combat and ground combat
- Defense from a standing, sitting or lying position
- Defense against unarmed and armed attacks (stick / sword, knife , ...)
- Defense against single or multiple attackers
The Pekiti Tirsia system is based on the principles of offensive defense against cut and stab weapons ( knives ). The same movement patterns and principles are always used - regardless of whether the attacker or defender has a weapon or not. So only one system and only one type of movement needs to be internalized. If a method works against an attacker armed with knives, then it also works with an unarmed opponent. at the first national Arnis, Kali and Eskrima full contact tournament , held in 1979 in the Philippines.
