Kali is an art that encompasses both the use of weapons and empty hands. Unlike most other martial arts, Kali starts the student with weapons training and progresses to empty hand training. Martial Concepts is Jason’s vehicle for passing on his extensive training. This DVD is designed as an optional companion to the Weapons and Weaponless Self-Defense Book (#005001) and covers most of the material in the book as well as some extra material not seen before. It explains the important basics and terminology that are the backbone and essential foundations for learning this ancient Filipino Martial Art.
