It brings together the history and a variety of styles, grandmasters, and philosophies.
The FMA are complete fighting systems, not mixed martial arts sports, so learning them will help in actual combat and self defense.
Because of this, the training may seem brutal, but during practice both fighters understand that safety and control are very important.
FMA includes techniques for different distances, multiple attackers, and advanced weapons fighting, so are extremely useful to police and the military, which is why The Armed Forces of the Philippines are trained in them.

Everyone involved in making Martial Arts: Secrets of the Asian Masters is passionate about FMA traditions and techniques.
