About
Kali Self Defence North Perth is a self-defence school located in Leederville, Western Australia. With over 23 years of experience in dominating the Perth self-defence scene, Kali Self Defence offers a comprehensive training programme for individuals of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced.
The training concepts of Kali Self Defence are a modern synthesis of several traditional Filipino Martial Arts and South East Asian Martial Arts. These sub-systems include Panantukan (Filipino Dirty Boxing), Sikaran (Filipino Kickboxing), Sinawali (Double Sticks), Solo Baston (Single Stick), Daga (Knife Fighting), Espada Y Daga (Sword and Dagger), Kadena De Mano (Close Quarter Fighting), Dumog (Filipino Grappling), Bankow (Modern Bo Staff Fighting), and different approaches of Pencak Silat. Kali Self Defence is also heavily influenced by the Muay Boran and Western Boxing concept.
In today's society, with the ever-growing violence on the streets of Australia and the rise of crime and theft involving weapons, Kali Self Defence becomes increasingly important. It is a form of Filipino stick and knife fighting combined with the powerful skills and fitness of Muay Thai Kickboxing. Through Kali Self Defence, students learn etiquette, dangers, and legalities involved with a wide range of weapons and combative situations. This dynamic yet graceful flowing art teaches individuals, regardless of their size or strength, how to safely avoid or disarm an attacker with little or no effort.
Classes at Kali Self Defence are suitable for both women and men, providing a safe and supportive environment for everyone. The training incorporates tactics and strategies from Kali Silat Evolution and other world-renowned disciplines. Students will learn double baston (Sinawali), which is known in the martial arts community for the extensive combat use of sticks or machetes by the Filipino Warrior. Solo baston (Single Stick) training focuses on blunt forced weapons and sword training, while daga (Knife Defence) teaches a specialised system of knife-fighting defence.
By participating in Kali Self Defence classes, individuals not only gain effective self-defence skills but also improve their fitness levels and confidence. The set drills and techniques taught in class inspire and excite all students and contribute to their overall wellbeing. The programme is designed to enhance body positioning, distance management, and empty hand skills.

The school also provides access to international guest instructors, further enriching the training experience.
