RAPID ARNIS INTERNATIONAL

Welcome to Rapid Arnis International © 1993 - 2009,
Europe's leading organisation teaching authentic Filipino martial arts and Sport Arnis / Eskrima.

Rapid Arnis was set up in 1993 after many years of research by two of Europe's leading fighter / Instructors, Pat O'Malley & John Harvey, because both felt there was a need for a style and organisation which taught Authentic Filipino Martial Arts to the general public.

Since its formation in 1993 Rapid Arnis gained the reputation as being Europe's leading Authentic Filipino Martial Arts Organisation and in 2000 was re-named Rapid Arnis International © 2000 - 2008.

Since then the mantle of heading up the organisation has fallen upon the shoulders of Tuhon Pat O'Malley (8th Degree Rapid Arnis International, 6th Grade Black Belt Doce Pares Original Multi Style System & European Representative for San Miguel Eskrima, winner of 3 World, 5 European and 32 British Arnis Kali Eskrima titles) who's reputation as both a full contact Eskrima fighter and traditional Filipino martial arts instructor is second to none and his wife Dayang Lucy O'Malley (6th Degree Rapid Arnis, 5th Grade Black Belt Doce Pares Original Multi Style System), who is also a winner of 6 World, 5 European and 20 British Arnis Kali Eskrima titles and like her husband is a life member of Doce Pares and the Philippine Council of Kali Eskrima Arnis Masters.

RAPID ARNIS OPEN POLICY
