FMA (Filipino Martial Arts) Knife Fighting - Group Classes
Knife fighting is non-firearm related training. While in most martial arts that I have taken including Okinawan Karate, Hapkido, Aikido, and even Brazilian JiuJitsu, weapons training is reserved late in your journey. Sometimes not introduced until you make black belt or learn through private lessons. In the Filipino Martial Arts, weapons come first. This introduction to weapons from the start teach attributes that can be carried over to empty hand training. Some of the attributes include body mechanics, line familiarization, footwork, use of either hand, proper distance, and many others. Knife fighting is a defensive tool that anybody can employ and doesn’t require extraordinary strength or size, but rather skill.
You will learn simple, practical techniques employed to end an engagement and escape to safety. This class is designed for participants wanting some self-defense principles and techniques without having to go through years of training. But, ongoing instruction will definitely make you a more effective and competent defender.
Tuition is $50 for 4 classes (1 month) or $20 for a single drop-in class; First class is free and if you bring someone you get another free.
