Just going to write here because I don't know where else I can express this. Lately I've been finding myself wanting to learn about my Filipino heritage, whether that be dancing, martial arts, language. So I've been diving deep in videos and taking some dance/combat classes... I need to get into learning Tagalog! Anyway I am so grateful for this video. The connection between dance and combat mentioned, honestly made me emotional and felt it in my soul. I had a moment of thinking of my indigenous ancestors who have potentially fought and healed one another.... I am here today because of them. And being aware of these practices have just made me feel closer to them. I want to continue to learn these practices and continue to share these practices with friends and family... To heal and to protect each other, as well as empower each other. We have so much power

As a Gung Fu practitioner, I picked up the FMA back in 88 and I was telling a student of mine that FMA is fun to practice but yet one of the most lethal arts that I ever studied plus it's the most adaptable arts that I ever practiced.

you attack a farmer with a bolo in the provinces and you will see how it will react to defend itself from being hack with a bolo or smack with a stick or pipe. He will not react as it is shown here in this video. It will defend in the practical way that he will not be hit and it can strike back.

Kali is an ancient term used to signify the martial arts in the region of the Philippines. In the Southern Philippines, it is sometimes called Kali-Silat. Silat refers to the movements of the lower body. Filipino stick fighting was entrenched in the island's culture long before the Spanish arrived in 1521. So why they named it kali? Kali is not connected to any Kali or Kalika (Sanskrit: कालिका, Kālikā. worshipped by Hindus throughout India and Nepal. during the reign of the two empires in India (Sri-Visjaya & Majapahit), there are evidences that the Filipino Culture was indeed had been influenced by India but the Majapahit has no claim to the martial arts since the Filipino tribes used it for traditional dance and fightings. Majapahit has no records of this martial arts even people now this day don't know this. Only Filipino people still practicing and thought this for a long long time till Majapahit, Spanish, Dutch, British, American, Japanese arrives.

In Indonesia, there is an ancient Sanskrit manuscript written by MPU Prapanca. The name of the manuscript is a negara Kertagama which departed in 1293 and the author is a direct witness to the civilization of the Majapahit Kingdom.
