	Martial art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Martial arts, often referred to as fighting systems, are systems of codified practices and traditions of training for combat, usually without the use of guns and other modern weapons.
		European martial arts have mostly adapted to changing technology and are truer to the English meaning of that phrase, so that while their descendants still exist, martial arts are focused on things like flying helicopters and infantry tactics for riflemen.
		Martial arts practice, with or without actual emphasis in self-defense specific techniques, is a recognized way to both teach positioning strategy and to boost self-confidence thus, subjectively, martial arts in general could be regarded, to some extent, as a kind of self-defense system.

		The name Kali is seldom used except for a few areas in the Southern Philippines, but has seen revival due to the teachings of modern masters such as Dan Inosanto and Cass Magda.
		As with most martial arts, the history of Eskrima is surrounded by legends and it is difficult to pin down facts.
		The degree to which this affected the practice of the native fighting arts is a matter of debate, but it seems likely that the Filipinos borrowed what worked and discarded what didn't (or at least, the Filipinos that survived to pass on their fighting arts did so).
