It used to be forbidden art and practiced in secrets. But now it’s all over the world. Salute to the masters! They have produced great instructors for the art.

Sir Bobby was my father's sparring partner way back in their younger years in Cebu City, Philippines. It was during their prime that they used to attend a tournament. Him and my father as well as their club members always outduels their opponents. Hope they'll meet again. Now my father is severely sick. But he still reminisce this precious memories shared to his sons & grand sons.

Bakit yung mga japanese saka chinese pag nag kakarate at kung fu yung ibang lahi di naman ganyan

[@vloggingismyhobby]

@@jedskie011 ang kungfu kc at karate mostlly sumikat sya sa sports o kaya sa movie Ang FMA kc tulad ng Arnis/Kali/Eskrima ay ginawa talaga to kill the opponent using weapon or empty hand. Lalo na nung unang panahon ginagamit yan panglaban sa mga kalabang tribu or sa mga mananakop na dayuhan. Kaya isa sya sa mga effective martial arts to kill. Kaya itinuturo yan sa mga sundalo or sa mga elite soldier kahit sa mga taga ibang bansa kc effective yan. Pero ginagamit din yang FMA sa mga ibang Hollywood movie stunts tulad sa John Wick/300/captain america/Jason Bourne/ at marami pang iba lalo na pag dating sa Weapon like Knife/Machete/Stick/Baton at iba pa..

Villabrille - Largusa Kali is a combat proven martial art that spans many generations. From the time before the Spanish invasion of the Visayas, to only a few years ago, Kali was a closely guarded secret that was passed on from teacher to student and father to son. Only the students deemed loyal were taught the art and it was never taught to non-Visayan.
