Lightning Scientific Arnis

 

Lightning Scientific Arnis is a Filipino Martial art founded by Benjamin Luna Lema in 1937. Lema was born in Mambusao, Capiz on the island of Panay in the Philippines on 19 March 1919. He learned his Arnis skills from his father as well as from other masters. He died on 5 January 2003.

Lightning Scientific Arnis is a system that revolves around the concept of Tercia Serrada Cadenilla y Espada y Daga which is a method of intercepting and redirecting attacks and blindsiding the opponent by going to the off-side and blanketing him with a barrage of continuous strikes while the checking hand constantly pushes, presses and controls his opponent putting him in a constant state of imbalance. In advanced practice the empty hand is replaced by a dagger as the practitioner progresses through the discipline. The organization in Manila, Philippines is headed by Lema's daughter Patty L. Caballero.

Repertoire
Lightning Scientific Arnis has a wide repertoire of techniques ranging from Solo Baston, Doble Baston, Baston Daga, Espada Y Daga, up to unarmed combat. It covers a wide range of skills for all fighting distances. All in all, it is a complete fighting system.

12 Methods

Bigay-Tama

Semi-Free and Freestyle attack and defense patterns that combine the aspects of Defense and Counter Attack through simulated combat that puts the practitioner through sets of randomized attacks that he will have to identify, defend against and counter at full impact and high speed.


Club Assault
A set of 42 Defenses that include Stick versus Stick Disarming, Empty-hand disarming versus stick, locks, holds and reverses.


Serrada

A fighting concept of intercepting the opponents attack and redirecting it off of the centerline while moving to the back of the opponent by jamming the attack with one's own combination and blanketing the opponent with strikes.
Serrada may be done in various weapon combinations:
Baston Serrada - One Stick
Doble Baston Serrada - Two Sticks
Baston Daga Serrada - Stick and Knife
Espada Y Daga Serrada - Sword and Dagger
Empty-Hand Serrada - Unarmed

 

The legacy of LSAI
In 1937, Grandmaster Benjamin Luna Lema, together with 20 other arnisadores, founded the Lightning Scientific Arnis International, in Roxas City, Capiz. It was the habit of these young men to go from place to place, seeking to learn from the best arnisadores they could find, and in some cases, challenging them to a test of skills. Since its inception in 1937, the association and style had grown in terms of membership. Currently, there are member clubs and practitioners all over the Philippines and in different parts of the world. In the Philippines, there are chapters in the different municipalities of Metro Manila, or the National Capital Region; Davao City, Davao; Roxas City, Capiz; Calapan, Mindoro; Laguna; etc. Outside of the Philippines, there are clubs in Singapore, the UK and in the USA, notably in Seattle, Washington.

The passing of Mang Ben, as he was known, followed by the subsequent passing of his successor, Maestro Elmer Ybaρez, left a heavy burden on the shoulders of their students. In response to this situation, several of the remaining students banded together in order to continue the legacy of Mang Ben and to promote and propagate their beloved style. Thus, in 2005, the senior students started to meet and plan out the directions LSAI would take in order to keep the flame alive.


Initially, those involved in the current efforts to keep LSAI going as an entity included Masters Romeo A. Santos, Rizalino Estacio, Vicente Sanchez, Romeo Valleno, Romy Valenzuela, Juanito Villeno, “Boy” Villeno, Pio and Jimmy Paclibar, Roland Dantes, Felipe P. Jocano Jr., Nathan Ben Dominguez, Jon Escudero, Manolo del Rosario and Joey Quiriones. It was recognized that the heir to the style and therefore the leadership of the system was Mang Ben’s oldest son, Joseph Luna Jr., currently residing in Washington, USA. In the Philippines, his sister Mrs. Patty Jean L. Caballero acts as his representative and oversees LSAI activities. Ate Patty, as she is affectionately known, serves as the guiding light of LSAI, with Jon Escudero serving as the Secretary General. The above named masters continue to meet on a monthly basis in order to both share and keep the knowledge alive and to coordinate activities designed to promote and propagate LSAI. Foremost among these is the Lema Memorial Cup, an LSAI-only tournament intended to foster friendship and fellowship among Mang Ben’s students. Other activities include future tournaments open to all Arnis clubs regardless of style, and sharing sessions in which both older and younger practitioners share and compare what they had learned directly from Mang Ben.
