Training in Modern Arnis makes many martial artists discover new things about their own style and blends well with the best movements of those styles. Many people have called Modern Arnis "the art within your art." It can greatly enhance and assist whatever art that you may already be training in. The Modern Arnis curriculum at Cromwell Martial Arts first focuses on the fundamentals of the Art and will take you in a step by step progression in developing the key ingredients that are necessary to become proficient in the Art. As you progress from beginner through advanced level, you will learn to make the translation between stick, blade and empty hand. Through diligent training you will develop "the flow". Modern Arnis is a stand alone system with it's own belt ranking that may also be incorporated into your current training. Our Master Instructor, Frank Shekosky, was a personal student of the late Grandmaster Remy Presas for nearly 15 years and has been certified as an Advanced Instructor and was named as a senior student of The Professor. Sensei Shekosky has instructed thousands of students across the country and has been inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall Of Fame in July 2005. Sensei Shekosky has
taken all of the core concepts from the Modern Arnis that he has learned
from personally training with Grandmaster Presas as well as many of the
Professor's other senior students, and has made his own innovations into
the art. At Cromwell Martial Arts you will learn the complete art of Modern
Arnis as well as additional double stick drills and forms, traditional
lower body kicks, step by step emptyhand vs. stick defenses, and joint
locking techniques. Photos from our weekly classes.
