Vee Jitsu Arnis Te is an eclectic fighting system. The components are Vee-Jitsu, Arnis (stick fighting), and Karate. To a lesser extent, it also incorporates elements of other Filipino martial arts, such as Kuntaw, as well as Chinese Kung fu, and Japanese Aikido.

Vee-Jitsu is the foundation of the art. It integrates the joint locks, breaks, throws, and ground movements of Judo/Jiu Jitsu with the “no-holds-barred” approach of traditional street fighting. “Streetonomic” techniques such as groin kicks, are readily employed during fight situations. To further enhance and improve the system, Professor Vee devised a series of fifteen two-person short forms dubbed “Vee-Jitsu-Te's”. These enable the student to respond effectively to a variety of attack scenarios using a series of sequential defensive moves. In order to additionally prepare for the realities of street confrontation, students are drilled rigorously in class and paired with persons of different shapes and sizes. That way an individual can experiment with various techniques, determine whether they work effectively against larger or smaller opponent within a given situation, and make adjustments if necessary.

The art of Arnis comprises the second major component of Vee Jitsu Arnis Te. It is here where we derive the famous “Doce Pares” (12 strikes) fighting pattern. Many of the Vee Jitsu Arnis Te techniques such as the “fifteen dimensions”, and the “patterns-of-twelve” drills are derived from Arnis. Students practice these techniques using a variety of different stepping variations. The more important ones include Paqua circular footwork, forward and backward motion, and the “V-stepping” pattern. A number of training exercises, including the “Sinaiwally” drills are also incorporated within the curriculum. The art of knife-fighting is another major part of weapons training, and it places great emphasis on rapid, continuous repetition of the “Doce Pares” and their striking drills as a means of developing speed and mobility.

Karate techniques are combined with stamina training to make up the third part of Vee Jitsu Arnis Te. Students are taught to maximize their fighting abilities by utilizing their elbows, knees, shins, as well as traditional hand and foot strikes during one-on-one, simulated combat conditions. Protective gear is always employed during these particular sessions for safety and to allow students to use maximum power against their opponents. Intensive bag work with two-person punching and kicking drills are also part of the curriculum. In addition, the system incorporates rigorous calisthenics in order to help students maintain optimum fitness levels.
