Written in archaic Tagalog, “Mga Karunungan sa Larong Arnis” [A Body of Knowledge in the Sport of Arnis] by Placido Yambao and Buenaventura Mirafuente published by the University of the Philippines Press in 1957 is the first definitive book on arnis. This manual became the historical reference of many books and articles on the Filipino Martial arts (FMA) circulated up to the late 1980s. |

Well better late than never. The FMAdigest almost closed down due to no material, however thanks to following writers (David Foggie, James Hogue, Joel Huncar, Phillip Weathers, Frank Aycocho, Michael Butz, and Barry McConnell) who responded immediately with some very interesting articles and to some others that have contacted me saying that they will contribute articles. |
