Essential Filipino Martial Arts - Paperback
Description
by Hock Hochheim (Author)
Over four decades ago, in the 1980s, Hock Hochheim started integrating Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) into his background in Jeet Kune Do, Kenpo and old-school Jujitsu. Through Presas Family Arnis, the diverse Inosanto Family Kali arts, and other FMA systems, he earned multiple black belts and certifications while incorporating his expertise with decades of military and police training, ensuring practical, real-world applications. Dedicated to identifying the universal, core principles of FMA, "the best of," he worked to strip away sport-based elements, redundancy, artistic flourishes, and non-essential aspects, honing the combative essence of FMA. Those familiar with his work, across 14 countries and hundreds of cities where he has taught over the past 30 years, recognize him as an outstanding instructor and curriculum developer.
