Hello Everyone,

This weekends event went off well and no serious injuries have been reported! You will be able to see some of the fights on various segments of the upcoming Sayoc Kali DVD's. Here is a quote from one of the Senior Sayoc Kali Instructors.

"Sayoc Kali focuses on "All Blade , All the Time!". A constantly evolving real
world approach on the blade.

Sayoc Kali is part of the larger organization called the Sayoc Fighting
System, which encompasses many other aspects of the FMA.

The 2004 Sayoc Stick Fights were conducted during a chilly autumn afternoon. As magenta leaves drifted lazily upon a mountain stream, all that was once tranquil were balanced by the maharlika's tune of a rattan stick whistling through the air, and its impact upon living skin and bone. The raw siena ofmoist soil invaded by crimson. Calloused hands and masks of exertion replace civilized armor. Myths are torn asunder and posturing trolls remain hidden in their warm electric havens.

The old saying that fiction can never equal REALITY is proven to be true.

Many who shall witness this footage will call it primal, perhaps even
brutal... we call it training.

Sayoc Kali
"Not the Past but the Future""
