Lightning Arnis (Singapore) is the Singapore branch of Lightning Scientific Arnis International (LSAI) Philippines -- the arnis system brought to life by the late Grandmaster Benjamin Luna Lema, fondly known as Mang Ben.

Lightning Arnis (Singapore) traces its roots directly to the University of the Philippines (UP) Sangkil Karasak group. Lightning Arnis (Singapore) also follows a lineage with LEMA Scientific Kali Arnis System or LESKAS. Started in early 2002 by Chief Instructor Vicente "Enteng" Reyes, Lightning Arnis (Singapore) became formalized as a duly-registered organization in 2006.
History of Kilat Senjata
The three weapons -- dagger, stick and sword -- represent the three primary weapons of an Arnis warrior. The absence of colours of the weapons is intentional and represents the starting point of an arnisador. The seemingly lifeless and colourless objects, through the discipline and diligence of the arnisador would be transformed and would take on colour, bringing the weapons to life as mastery of the skills grows.

Kilat and Senjata mean "lightning" and "weapon" respectively.

After careful practice, study and dedication the arnisador acquires the qualities of the complete and ideal Philippine warriors of old: Kilat Senjata.
