This is an inside look to learning/training in the Babao Arnis system at the (by invite only) garage headquarters.
Featuring Master Narrison “Nar” Babao, Maestro Don Dizon, Domingo Agnas, and other Babao Arnis students.
The Babao Arnis legacy is currently in its fourth generation. Master Narrison “Nar” Babao is the son of the late GM Narciso “Narrie” Babao and is the head of the Babao Arnis system.
Nar started formal training at 16. He is a senior master in Babao Arnis system and also a Master under the Cacoy Doce Pares system. He's left-handed and ambidextrous, a strength he compensates with despite having a physical handicap (1 leg shorter due to polio). Even so, he’s adapted and is a role model and inspiration to all.
The Babao Arnis system is composed of three main combative systems; Villabrille-Largusa Kali, Cacoy Doce Pares Eskrido, and the original Baston Batangas taught by the late patriarch Buenaventura “Turing” Babao - as learned from Master Ka Juan, a Katipunan rebel under General Miguel Malvar, during the Filipino American war.
The academy of Babao Arnis is very exclusive and selective in accepting students. An individual has to be recommended by a trusted source in the Filipino Martial Arts community, undergo a careful screening process, interviewed, security checked, and accepted. Many of the students come from several law enforcement agencies and the academy’s curriculum is followed adhering to the lineage.

Really good, down to earth depiction of the Babao System. I knew GM Narrie from the San Diego-Oceanside tournaments in the early 80s. A great man. Happy to see the legacy continue.

Much respect to you and your grandfather. I in 1987 ish trained at the Navy (Recruit base) gym in San Diego. I remember two young children working with Master Narrison "Nar" Babao. I was fortunate enough to speak with him and be introduced to the two children he was training. He was a powerful man and appeared very patient.
