This seminar will have demos of other styles in FMA and there might even be an attempt to break a world record at this event. I heard that invitations were sent to all FMA practitioners in the SF bay area as well as Filipino cultural groups too. This should be a first of many more FMA Seminars in Vallejo,CA. that will exhibit the whole Filipino culture & arts.
