Filipino Martial Arts (FMA)

“Imagine a martial art that does not punch, block or kick.”
“Imagine an art with NO defense only offense and counter offense.”
“We never strike first but we will always hit first.”

The Bladed Mind is a modern look into the traditional form of Filipino Martial Arts, with a simplified approach to the teaching and understanding of the art known as Kali.  We encourage students to explore what they are taught and make it more than what they are shown.  Through theory and principle, a better understanding and application of the fighting art is then realized. Training begins with basic strikes, delivery to targets and mobility. Our primary goal is to teach the student to learn for themselves. We supply them with the tools and concepts of using those tools. We believe it’s really up to the student to develop their own sense of style or fight.
