In my mind, Filipino Martial Arts is not only a weapons system. It's a true Warrior Arts with all the fighting aspects. I find the FMA as one of the most organized and rational Fighting Systems. It's practical, efficient and at the same time it has given me the opportunity to create and define myself as a Martial Artist. 

 

But KSE is not only FMA. It's also heavily influenced by Pencak Silat, Muay Boran and Western Boxing. Each of these Arts works together... They complete each other with their personal values...

 

I truly believe that KSE should enable my students to create on their own, to define on their own... 

 

Martial Arts should help us to find our ability to adapt to any given situation. Find our way to survive in any situation...

 

Kali Silat Evolution more than techniques...

It's a state of mind...

KSE...

Be in Motion...

KSE is a modern synthesis of several traditional Filipino Martial Arts and South East Asian Martial Arts. The training concepts of KSE are composed of several sub-systems. These sub-systems are Panantukan (Filipino Boxing), Sikaran (Filipino Kicking), Sinawali (Double Sticks), Solo Baston (Single Stick), Daga (Knife Fighting), Espada Y Daga (Sword and Dagger), Kadena De Mano (Filipino Trapping) and Dumog (Filipino Grappling) and Pencak Silat Concept.

In addition, KSE  is heavily influenced by the Arts of Bando, Krabi Krabong, Muay Boran and Western Boxing Concept
