Why Arnis?

Why did you choose Kali/Arnis/Eskrima out of all the martial arts?



Also is it enough as a system on its own for self defence, or is it better to train something like boxing or muay thai alongside?



If you do crosstrain this art why do you crosstrain and not just practice this alone?



Im just curious as to other peoples perspectives, because Im considering taking up this art but wondering whether it would be worth getting myself down a boxing gym at the same time?
