Hello, I've trained Wing Chun since 2 years 1/2 now, I recently began training Arnis too. My Arnis teacher says he studied the system called Doce Pares in Cañete's school, untill now, in 1 month we have learned 3 Sinawalis: Single Sinawali, Double Sinawali & Sinawali Mas (which may mean Sinawali-more in enlgish) also 4 double baston techniques and 2 single baston techniques (these techniques are not sinawalis). However I do not see the way he manages Grades, belts or techniques, for example:
You beguin with single baston on first grade
You do double on second grade
You do Espada y Daga on third grade
And so on..
I have asked him ans he says what he is teaching corresponds to the Arnis first grade. Every Arnis school I've searched on the net seems to start with single baston, do you have any idea why he manages the system like this and starts with double baston with a mix of single baston techniques? Is the Doce pares system like this?
I would thank if someone can inform/orient me please
