Why should I learn Filipino Fighting Arts

The Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) are modern, effective and versatile. We from the Filipino Fighting Arts Association strongly focus on teaching the full range of combat. Like a decathlete, who is a well-rounded athlete trained in various disciplines, it is our approach to make our students the decathletes of Martial Arts. We teach the full range of Martial Arts: Double and single stick fighting, knife defense, the usage of every-day objects, trapping skills, boxing, kickboxing, locks, chokes, takedowns and ground fighting, specific self-defense techniques and settings as well as tactical behaviour and procedures.

If you want to learn the complete range of Martial Arts, be able to  react and switch quickly between disciplines as needed, you should become part of our family. In Filipino Fighting Arts  we place great emphasis on a balanced training of weapon and empty hand skills, the transferability of principles and the combination of disciplines. This makes you highly versatile and adaptable.  In addition, it is fun to train and switch between so many skills.

The Filipino Fighting Arts Association is a community of friends who share the same passion. Join our family, get new friends and learn new skills. Train in one of our groups, join our workshops, seminars and camps or learn with us online - we offer all options. We help our students in every possible way: we provide comprehensive textbooks for each level with hundreds of step-by-step pictures, we make professional DVDs about specific topics, and we have built up the largest FMA online platform worldwide to make it possible to train with us all around the world, 365 days a year: FMA365.com.  We are strongly committed to teaching you the complete art on the highest possible level.

No matter if you are a newcomer to Martial Arts, a blackbelt in some kind of Martial Arts seeking for new input, or in government or private security forces searching for personal development and training - this is for you.
