De Campo 1-2-3 International
A devastating combat system of arnis in the Philippines founded in 1925 by Professor Jose Caballero.
De Campo Strikes.
This is a drill, not a fight.
The partner stays in place on purpose so accuracy, line, and range can be trained and corrected.
Toward the end of the clip, the context changes. The partner begins striking, and the responses adjust accordingly.
This is how drills function inside De Campo 123.
The De Campo 123 Original Master Class is currently on sale.

Good movement brother! 💪

Footage from Mindanao recently circulated through international media, including ABC News, showing a man launching an RPG in an attack intended to take down a local mayor. While the incident itself was alarming, many viewers in the West focused on a different detail. The man was wearing tsinelas, the Filipino word for simple rubber or plastic flip flops commonly worn at home, on the street, and in everyday life.
For Filipinos, tsinelas are ordinary. They are not symbolic, political, or performative. They are simply practical footwear used by people across all walks of life. Seeing them in serious or extreme situations may look strange to outsiders, but locally, it is not unusual.
Jose Caballero, founder of De Campo 123 Original, is often seen wearing tsinelas in old photographs. Not because tsinelas were better than shoes, and not as a rejection of proper footwear or gym training, but because training reflected daily reality at the time. You trained where you were, with what you had.
De Campo acknowledges this history. Training in tsinelas is one option, not a requirement, and not a judgment on those who train in shoes, boots, or modern gym environments. Proper footwear matters, especially for safety, structure, and long term practice.
What tsinelas represent in De Campo is adaptability. Footwork that works in shoes should also work without them. Balance, timing, and placement should not depend on ideal conditions. The system was shaped in real environments, and that context remains part of its identity.
This post is not about glorifying violence. It is about cultural context, lineage, and understanding why certain images look shocking to outsiders but ordinary to those who grew up here.

Jose Caballero fought in many Juego Todo matches from the 1930s through the 1950s and is widely remembered as undefeated. Oral and historical accounts often cite bouts such as Horje Navado in 1936 and Anoy of Tangub in 1939 as part of that period. Looking at old photos of how Caballero trained and lived, do you think he fought wearing shoes, or can you imagine him fighting in tsinelas as well? Not a claim. Just context. Just history.
Ha! I didn’t even notice.
"Ang Tsinelas" bow.😅
In this clip the De Campo 123 method is shown through hadla, patikang, and bitik. It begins with hadla, a quick spark that forces the opponent to react. Once the reaction starts, patikang appears, the deliberate opening that invites the attack. The moment the opponent commits, bitik closes the line and the sequence ends.
The finishing may look overkill because a barrage of strikes is launched, but this is how De Campo trains the body not to stop once an offensive begins. Continuous follow through builds the instinct to finish the line with clarity and intent.

Beautiful. Pugay po
This clip of Manny Pacquiao doing rapid footwork (www.facebook.com/share/r/17gyfbR1hA/) looks very similar to the paspas footwork of De Campo.
For years, some people within FMA circles ridiculed paspas because they never see it used openly in eskrima. What many do not understand is that GM Jose Caballero would never reveal a high value movement to outsiders, or even to most students. Paspas was a fighting tool, not a demo tool. If he used it, it was in real violence. If he taught it, it was only to a trusted few.
That is why some practitioners today believe it “does not exist.” They judge based only on what was shown in public, not realizing how much of the old material remained behind closed doors.
When Pacquiao glides, changes angles, attacks, exits, and re enters the line, the logic of paspas becomes easier to see. It is an efficient way to move while attacking and avoiding counters. It is not performance footwork. It is fighting footwork.
De Campo shares paspas today because the context has changed. The era of real juego todo is gone, but the knowledge will die if it stays hidden. Preserving the system means documenting the methods clearly and teaching them with structure and responsibility. The goal is to protect the integrity of the art and prevent distortion from those who were never taught the original method.
The video posted here shows Maestro Pagaling doing an ensayo, using paspas as the footwork, so everyone can clearly compare it with Pacquiao’s movement.
Anyone who wants to study paspas and the full curriculum can join the De Campo Master Class at decampo123.org/masterclass. The complete system is taught step by step, with weekly Zoom sessions and full downloadable lessons.
