Our training first teaches you a level of awareness about weapons. Once you have an understanding of the threat, then the training progresses to protecting yourself from the threat. The methodology we use teaches the individual skills of ultra refined awareness of their environment by recognizing that everything and anything can become a weapon. For example, the 9/11 incidents involved box cutters and plastic knives.
We take a very pro-active and dynamic approach. This stems from the concept of “Laging Una”, meaning “Always First”. A principle that is inherent in all Filipino Fighting.
