Stick Fighting

Is there a difference between Kali, Arnis and escrima? If so what are they? And does anyone know of any basic strikes, blocks and forms on video?

I was taught by my instructor that Kali is the original term as given to the art before the Spanish arrived. Kali is an Indo-Asiatic word while Arnis and Escrima are European influenced.

I avoid name dropping as a standard practice (just don't do the hero worship thing I guess). However since you're interested in my favourite topic, try looking up Dan Insonato (it's usually pretty easy to find videos with him in it).

From what I've read and understand, they're all the same, just different names
