Simple native style accommodation can be provided to the students, or they can choose from a variety from cheap to expensive hotels in Sabang.

Training is 4 hours per day, 5 days a week. However, this schedule, just like Jaguar Escrima, is flexible and training hours and days can be tailored to suit the student. During your training, you will do conditioning and stretching, which are essential in any form of martial art training. The majority of training time will be spent on how to use Escrima modern weapons, and to master the techniques of the art.

Jaguar Escrima

Jaguar Escrima is non classical combining elements of Muay Thai, Kick boxing, Karate, and Krav Maga. It is not a competition martial art, but one designed for street combat. Escrima utilizes weapons which, in modern time, are mostly light and concealable, such as extendable batons, extendable nunchaku, and belt buckle knifes. This feature along with the unarmed combat make Jaguar Escrimaa formidable street defence.

Course preparation

Conditioning is an essential part of training. Thus, although Jaguar Escrima welcomes all levels alike, physical preparation before coming to the camp, and for the hot and humid climate in the Philippines is highly recommended.
