wow.. amazing ... respect mga guro at mga punong guro!

Man, Cebu looks like so much fun. That lechon looks delicious and the sunset is beautiful.

[@FMAPulse]

It was! The lechon is second to none. The sunsets is something you don't see often where you see all the colors in the sky.

Love how you document the Masters outside of the martial arts. People forget, we’re all human and we have other passions too. 😎 ❤

[@FMAPulse]

Everybody wants to show the art and combative areas, gotta show the lighter side outside of the training space of the culture as well.

[@thecomedybowl6070]

On top of the martial arts stuff, Cebu looks like an awesome place to have a good time.

[@FMAPulse]

Cebu area is known for having a lot of nice beaches and tourist attractions. It also has a deep history as well.

[@allones3078]

Very cool

[@FMAPulse]

It was definitely an experience to be surrounded by so many talented instructors. But what makes it even more special, is the hospitality they all share.

[@allones3078]

@@FMAPulse yeah it seemed like it was a blast. i myself have just started my FMA journey after seeing the FCS Puerto Rico videos on your channel. keep up the good work.

[@FMAPulse]

@@allones3078 that's awesome. Are you training with LG Pipo?

[@allones3078]

@@FMAPulse My instructor is David but same group. I have not met LG Pipo yet. But it was your video that helped me find them. I did not think there was any FMA here until i saw the video.

[@FMAPulse]

@@allones3078 ah cool, I met David back in August, really good practitioner. You're in great hands. Glad our video helped you in finding a training group. Puerto Rico is like another second home to me. Lifestyle is very similar to the Philippines.

❤ from Russia🇷🇺 with love❤

[@FMAPulse]

Classic.

[@CoachKurtLFSKaliFightTeam]

Goals! I have a great video of GM Bobby singing after WCC in Marysville this year.

[@FMAPulse]

We need to start a band LOL!

[@profatenista]

Wonderful to see the succeeding generations of Balintawak practitioners playing and enjoying fellowship with their uncles or grand uncles in the art back home in Cebu where it all started.

[@FMAPulse]

Always have to respect where the style came from and those who helped spread the art outside of Cebu. The family atmosphere is always a plus.

[@HenrySoco]

BIG CHEERS BROTHERS❤🎉 ANYHOW, I will drop everything including my Arnis for CEBU LECHON😂😂 LOL😂😂 On a serious note, HAPPY TO SEE GM’s TABOADA AND VILLASIN BACK IN OUR BELOVED CEBU

[@FMAPulse]

It was a great reunion with all old friends gathering again. Besides the lechon disappearing quickly, we also emptied one store of all their Don Papa rum :)

[@HenrySoco]

@@FMAPulse Wowww hope I could attend on next gathering… take care and GOD BLESS YOU ALL

[@BillCullins]

Classes? Seminars, Training locations January 2025? Any advice..

[@raycuizon8226]

growing up in Cebu. I'm much more familiar with the old masters. The likes of the Romo's, Maranggas they were my neighbors and not to far away were the Canetes, Saavedra's and Bacon's.I still remember going to the Balintawak Gym right off Carbon Market about 35 years ago. If you really want to know about FMA maybe research these guys.

[@davidcapurro2594]

it would have been good if some other instructors from the Doce Pares family were there eg lapunti arnis de abanico, Doce Pares Multi-Style, Cacoy Doce Pares, San Miguel

[@TamilBrucelee]

hi i am travelling to cebu in october. i want some contact where i can train fma for 4-5 days. Thanks

[@FMAPulse]

Sorry for the late reply. You can reach out to any of the GM's that we interviewed. GM Danny Casio (RED Balintawak), GM Nick Elizar (Nickelstick Balintawak), Mang Tini Celestino Macachor (EDC) or GM Edwardo Ceniza (Baraw Sugbo), etc. Do you have facebook?

[@TamilBrucelee]

@@FMAPulse yes I have Fb account

[@A.M.Customs]

but it is surprising that the grand masters are overweight, do not follow a diet, eat meat (although since ancient times it has been known that vegans have more energy, gladiators were vegetarians), and many followers can barely walk due to excess weight... 

[@guardianangel3425]

That's the beauty of FMA, anyone can do it, not just the athletic types.

[@greggybada]

nah... filipinos just like to eat... 😂😂😂
