Filipino Martial Arts

Discover the deadly grace of the Filipino Martial Arts, that emphasize weapon-based fighting with sticks, blades and improvised weapons. Although training starts with weapons, empty hand techniques, trapping and limb destruction are also a core part of these arts as the weapon is merely an extension of the body. FMA is one of the most elusive and effective weapon and empty-hand systems in the world.
