Activity 1. Reflective Essay

Direction: Read the questions below carefully and write your answer on the space provided.
1. What are the significant contributions of Arnis as National Sport and Martial Art to
our culture and national identity?
Arnis is the national martial art sport of the Philippines. It is also known by the name
Eskrima and Kali. The sport gives emphasis to weapon based fighting. This is often done
using bladed weapons such as knives, sticks, and other improvised weapons. Filipinos are
known worldwide for their blade culture born from this sport. It’s an important continuity to
the culture of the people and place that connects to pre-colonial times. I think it’s also a legit
source of pride because it’s now practiced all over the world. The art and training methods
carry with them other elements of culture such as craftsmanship, ethics, traditional medicine,
etc. It’s an important continuity to the culture of the people and place that connects to pre-

II. Essay Test: In your own opinion, what do you think are the benefits that you can get from
Arnis as regular physical activtiy aside from physical wellness? (5points)
The sport began without a field or a ring, requiring only an open space for practice
and equipment consisting of hands or sticks. It encouraged those with lower socioeconomic
status to participate more easily, allowing the sport to evolve. Arnis' virtues include
discipline, stamina, endurance, precision, and teamwork. To be most effective at arnis, one
must be fast and precise. Human coordination enables them to make decisions instinctively
and without hesitation.
Arnis has numerous advantages that we can take advantage of. Apart from physical
fitness, it can also discipline us by assisting us in adhering to positive ethics such as
punctuality, principles, and appropriate behavior. Arnis aids in stress reduction by improving
our perspective, mindset, and confidence while focusing on improving our physical fitness,
mental health, and emotional health. Aside from improving strength and cardio, I believe it
also helps with stamina and reflexes. It is also for self-defense in case of emergency.
Furthermore, it provides you with positive reinforcement and respect for martial arts values.
