Martial Arts Systems: •Wing Chun Gung Fu (Pan Nam and Yip Man systems) •Bahad Zubul Filipino Fighting Arts (FMA)
From London, but currently living in China's Guandong Province, I am a direct student of Grand Master Yuli Romo in the Filipino combat art of Bahad Zubu.
I am also proficient in Pan Nam and Yip Man systems of Wing Chun Gung Fu with over 27 years experience.
I teach classes in Bahad Zubu and Wing Chun. For my information please visit: •www.bahad-zubu.org.uk • www.fatshan-wingchun.co.uk
He is Master Lu; one of China's Sanda Champions. He was a member of the Chinese National Sanda Team for some time. His kicks are very fast, but as if that was not enough, his kicks are also extremely powerful. No one could hold the strike pad for him to kick!
Yes! A lot of the movements (if not all) are related to the bio-stick. You will do well to practice the bio-stick thoroughly. Good luck and I hope you always enjoy your training.
LOL they didn't include Panay Island. What secret these cebuanos want to keep nowadays? Anyway , all cool n dandy, they can keep it all they want, we dnt give a shit.
write kali-silat / silat-kali here in youtube, there will be tons of materials that show you the similarity since they even sticks the name like that. and the migration were belongs to srivijayan, not majapahit residents.
If you haven't already, you should read Mark Wiley's "Filipino Martial Culture". It's ethnography, history, and some really top notch interviews with Filipino masters, many of which have probably (unfortunately) passed away.
the background music is from the northern part of the country usually played in the mountain province in particular by the gaddangs of n.vizcaya and paracelis.
@MrSolitude14 What you say is partly true. Our brothers in the South are NOT the only people who were not conquered by the Spaniards. We the IGOROTS in the Cordilleras (Northern Luzon) were never conquered too. That's why we do not have Spanish sounding names.
It more sounds like a brief story or fiction than history in itself. The story of Majapahit migration to the Visayan islands is apparently based on the Maragtas epic written by Pedro Alcantara in mixed Hiligaynon and Kinaray-a in 1907 and it is in no way history but fiction. There is no close similarity between the Indonesian matial arts of Pentjak Silat from the Kali system. The fighting system is popular in the Visayan islands it is safe to assume that it is indigenous to it than imported.
@vandidaz thanks for.responding so quickly! I have been looking for a kamplian for a wile now but the only ones I can find are around 35 or so inches long over all... Around a 25 inch blade and around 5-8 inch hilt Iv been looking for one closer to the size of.yours.. and can't find one. Which was why o was debating making one out of aluminium (I have some blade smithing experience) can you recommend a where to purchase a good large kamplian?
@paintballinkaliguy : I got mine in the Philippines. I got to look / ask around. If I get any good info on where to purchase I will let you know. Glad to be of some assistance to a fellow FMA practitioner ^^
Thanks for the input! can you recommend a place to purchase a good kamplian? I have been looking for a wile an can only find smallish ones, around 35 or so inches long over all....(most around 25 inch blade 5-8 inch hilt) which was why I was.debating using aluminium and making one closer to the size of yours... ( I have some blade smithing experience) Thanks for responding so quickly Peace!
@paintballinkaliguy : It is best to buy one. The sizes are between 42" to 45"; this one is 42". If I manage to sort a clip out on drills I will post. But the movements you need are pretty much there. Also check out some other Kampilan clips some of my fellow practitioners have put up.
Nice! Can you give the dimensions of your kampilan? I'd like to make one to practice with.. also can you post some solo drills / partner drills I'd love to have some basic info on this beautiful weapon
@sjander29 the art it self doesnt came from india, it is come out from animism pre-hinduism reagions that now days known as indonesia (yes, srivijaya located in indonesia). guru (or in another dialects known as `guro`) is hindus word for: religious teacher/ religious leader, but it got `malaynisation` in the advance by loosing its `religious` feature, and simply become `someone who teach you something` or guru/teacher
@pinoyblues69 the stick art (read: escrima/arnis) was born through the blade disband rules of spaniard, so they replace the abscence of blades with sticks, in the mindanao we cant find it because the mindanao people are the only people that was failed to conquered by the spaniard and manage to keep their blades, now you know why they are the bravest people in the rep of the philippines.
@banyohazard69 yup, thats why I said that FMA are actually in the same family of what i called SEAMMA (south east asia maritime martial arts) along with silat etc.
@pinoyblues69 siguro alam mo na substitute yung sticks kasi pinagbawal ng mga kastila ang pag practice ng swordplay, para di halata yun ang ginagamit nila...dun sa sinasabi mong bladed weapons ang gamit ng moro, ung stick nila palitan mo ng itak o ano mang matalim na sandata di ganun din yun...
