Indian Ninjas Are False Teachers
From:
After watching Ninja flicks like Three Little Ninjas and American Ninjas you must have wanted to fight and move like the flexible, strong Ninjas. But if you thought that you would never be able to get hold of a coach who could teach you those fabulous moves and tactics, here is some news for you.
Arnis, a Filipino system of martial arts, is taking the city by storm. A great self-defence system that is practised with sticks, it also happens to be one of the best ways to lose calories and reach new levels of fitness.

Arnis is practised with sticks, knives and empty hand work. Escrima refers to work just with sticks and Kali refers to knife work (in the west anyway).
I train in Lightning Scientific Arnis (aka Espada Y Daga Serrada) myself.
Here in the Philippines we call those “sticks”, Arnis. And Kali is a traditional art of battling using Arnis, Knives and hand-to-hand combat.
