PHILOSOPHY

 

  This Page will not sit well with

some or even most systems, but

in the Filipino Arts it is #1. In

the years that I have spent in

one Art or another, one common

thing keeps coming up. No

matter what art you  study, you

will find kicks, punching, or

grabbing. No matter what the

style, it all takes the use of the

limbs. In the P.K.S. method, we

focus on destruction of the

limbs. If you destroy the arm,

the hand can't grab, form a fist,

or hold a weapon. If you destroy

the leg, the foot can't kick,

knee, or trap your leg or foot,

and cant even hold up the

body that it is under. This mind

set is not what you will see in

the latest M.M.A. match, or the

movies. Yet it is what has made

the F.M.A. so powerful in the

past centuries. This method is

not for sport, and you don't have

to be a muscle man to make it

work, but you will have to change

the way you look at a fight. In

military terms, you need to take

out the observation posts

before you can commit to an

attack,(A.K.A.) takedown. If you

fail to take out the limbs at the

start, you will face them from

behind the lines and they will

have as much power as they had

befor you entered. Tactically

this means that you will fight a

two front war. Why? We at

P.K.S. believe that it's to our

advantage if we eliminate our

opponent's abuility to

counter our attack from the

start. This is the main objective

in the F.M.A. and P.K.S. Take out

the attacking limbs and you will

save the life of your opponent.

   

 

I would like to thank

you for taking the time

to view this site. I hope

it will give you some

insight into the F.M.A.

and the P.K.S. way. I

hope to see you and

train with you .

 Take care, train safe,

train smart,

and God

Bless!
