The traditional arts known as Kali, Eskrima or Arnis were developed in the Philippines over centuries, as her people fought for their independence from foreign invaders. Skirmishes with each new culture provided new techniques. Subsequently, more than 100 different Filipino Martial Arts styles developed, which can be grouped into three complete self-defense systems which utilize sticks, swords, empty hands and other weapons. Our core system is a Mountain Visayan fighting system bought to the USA by our system's Founder GM Felix Roiles. His Grandfather called it Pakamut or Pangamut. GM Roiles shared his families' fighting system with Marc Lawrence, which Marc incorporated into his own FMA fighting system, Modified Pangamut System.
