Kali/Escrima

Kali
卡里
The following is a very brief description of the art of Kali. This only scratches the surface of what Kali really is, but this should provide you with enough information to get a general idea of the Filipino martial arts. 卡里
Kali is an ancient martial art from the Philippines. Kali is considered the mother of all Filipino martial arts.
Sometimes Kali is called Escrima or Arnis de Mano.
It was developed by the native Filipino tribesmen centuries before the first Spanish invasion of the Philippines by Magellan in 1521.
以下是对卡里艺术的简要介绍。仅仅提及真正卡里的肤表,但足以让您对菲律宾武术有个总体的认识。
卡里是源于菲律宾的一门古老武术。被尊为菲律宾武术之母。
卡里又被称为Escrima 或 Arnis de Mano。
远在1521年麦哲伦率领的西班牙军队侵略菲律宾前的几个世纪,菲律宾本土的部族人就已将卡里发展成型。

These are the ancestors of the Moro (muslim) Filipinos and the Filipinos of Mindanao.
The Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia were once part of a large united Empire so many of the martial techniques appear to be similar, although Kali is a uniquely Filipino art.
The first invasion of the Philippines by the Spanish occured in 1521 when Ferdinand Magellan and his conquistadores came to the islands.
来自临近岛屿上的马来和印尼的移民给菲律宾带来了他们本国的风俗和大量运用各式带刀刃的武器的武术。他们就是摩洛和棉兰老人的祖先。
卡里的许多技巧与班卡西拉有着些许相似之处。
菲律宾、马来和印尼曾经共属于一个大国,所以他们的许多武术看起来很相似,但卡里仍然是一门独一无二的菲律宾武术。
1521年,麦哲伦率领西班牙侵略军开始了对菲律宾的侵略。

They were met by Filipino Chief Lapu Lapu and his kali warriors. In the battle of Mactan, Chief Lapu Lapu killed Magellan and his warriors defeated and drove back the Spanish using only their native weapons and Filipino martial arts.
麦哲伦的率领的军队遭遇了菲律宾头领Lapu lapu和他的卡里勇士们。在麦丹岛战役中,Lapu lapu杀死了麦哲伦,并和他的卡里勇士们用自己的武器和菲律宾武术共同击退了西班牙军队。

Kali trains in many different weapons and empty hands techniques. This martial art is different from many forms of other martial arts in that we don't practice fancy movements for show or entertainment. There is no formal belt ranking system and we don't wear traditional uniforms.
Kali is a complete martial art covering every aspect of combat.
后来,西班牙军队又返回菲律宾征服了其大部分的领土(惟独南部岛屿除外)。
卡里包括诸多不同武器的使用和徒手作战技巧,有别于其他武术形式,我们没有那些用来表演或娱乐的空洞的招式,也没有正式的腰带颜色级别划分体系,不穿着正式的制服。
卡里是一门涉及格斗各个方面的完整的武术。

Traditional Kali weapons
Panantukan is the art of Filipino boxing and is one of the subdivisions of Kali.
Guro Rick Faye of the Minnesota Kali Group describes Panantukan as "Everything that is in Western Boxing, plus everything that is illegal in Western boxing. (Headbutts, elbows, knees, biting, eye-gouging, and much more) One unique aspect of Panantukan is striking the limbs (called destructions). These strikes are to sensitve nerve areas to the arms and legs. In Kali, the hand and arms are a target. We are taught to smash the hands of the opponent, especially if he is holding a weapon.
Panantukan是菲律宾拳术,属于卡里的一部分。
明尼苏达卡里团队的Rick Faye 师傅形容Panantukan 为拥有西方拳击所拥有的,加之西方拳击中所不允的(用头撞、用肘、用膝、咬、挖眼等等)。Panantukan的一个独特之处是攻击肢体(神经毁灭)。这些攻击是针对四肢的敏感神经发力。卡里中,手和手臂是攻击的目标。我们要学会击打对方的手部,特别是当其手执武器时。
卡里的另一部分是Dumog,意为移动对方的身体。我们通过控制对方的胳膊、腿、头及躯干来达到目的。
我们还使用了Kina-Mutai/Ankab-Pagkusi中的技巧,有挖眼、撕咬等。它不同于普通动作,而是运用特殊技巧以产生毁灭性的结果。
Another part of Kali is called "Dumog", meaning to move the opponents body. We do this by manipulating the arms, legs, head, and torso of the opponent. We use throws and grappling movements, but the movements are different from other types of wrestling or grappling arts.
We also employ the arts of Kina-Mutai/Ankab-Pagkusi, meaning eye-gouging and biting techniques. These are more than just biting. There are special techniques for biting that can cause devestating results

"Don't kid around, the Dumoguero, he will plaster you to the wall or the Dumoguero will plant your head into the ground".
