Newman-Escrima is a self-defense system based on weapons that aims to enable people to defend themselves in stressful and violent situations. The system focuses on simple and functional techniques, the promotion of reaction ability, and the realistic assessment and enhancement of one's own defensive capabilities. The training includes the use of various weapons and everyday objects, as well as training without weapons, to create a comprehensive repertoire of defense options. The primary goals of the training are to prepare individuals for self-defense and combat situations, to make them aware of their possibilities and chances against attackers with and without weapons, to physically and mentally strengthen them, and to sharpen their awareness of potential danger situations and provide them with strategies for dealing with them.
