| Filipino Martial Arts - General Filipino styles normally classify attacks not by their weapon, or their delivery style, but by the direction of their energy. The Filipino arts place great emphasis on footwork, mobility, and body positioning. These arts include Escrima, Dumog, Balintawak, Arnis, Kali, Doce Pares, and many more. Culturally related topics also are welcome such as language, foods and customs. Sponsor:  |

Re: FMA Glossary
Thanks for the feedback! I found the glossary has helped me a lot, especially being a noobie and having to learn all these new words.
 Palusut, do you think this is worth stickying? It's OK if you don't, I was just curious.
