From Weapons to Empty Hands
KCMA’s Filipino martial arts curriculum uses weapon-based and empty-hand training to develop coordination, timing, angles, distance and adaptability. Students explore weapons including sticks, knifes and training blades alongside Panantukan, trapping, limb control, takedowns and self-defense—learning how the same principles apply across different tools and ranges.

Connecting Every Range of Combat
KCMA’s Filipino and Southeast Asian Martial Arts curriculum blends Filipino Martial Arts with Silat into one adaptable system. Students train with weapons including sticks and blades while learning how the same principles of movement, timing, angles and control carry into striking, trapping, joint locks, takedowns and empty-hand defense. This integrated approach develops coordination, awareness and practical skills across multiple ranges.
Do you face any of these challenges?
Filipino Martial Arts
Drawing from the 12 areas of Kali, our Filipino Martial Arts training explores single and double stick, stick-and-dagger, knife and empty-hand methods—including Panantukan, Sikaran, trapping, joint control and Dumog. Students learn how movement, angles, timing and sensitivity connect these areas into one adaptable system.
Maphalindo Silat
Created by Guro Dan Inosanto from Silat systems of Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia, Maphilindo Silat emphasizes fluid movement, close-range striking, limb control, off-balancing, sweeps and takedowns. Students learn to use angles, leverage and whole-body movement to transition smoothly between standing and ground positions.

My son was interested In martial arts however he wasn’t sure exactly what type he wanted to do and was nervous about his first class. We arrived and were greeted warmly and he was given excellent instruction and extra attention. It was a wonderful experience and he looks forward to multiple classes and styles of martial arts each week!

I've been to several martial arts schools over the past decade, and KCMA is by far the best. From your first class, it's clear that Coach Keith's knowledge and expertise are exceptional. He's a true martial arts professional who genuinely cares about his students' growth in both combat skills and discipline. Coach Keith always makes himself available before and after classes to review the curriculum and help us fine-tune our form. If you're serious about leveling up your skills and abilities, this is the place to be.

Coach Keith is an exceptional coach with a wealth of knowledge in various martial arts disciplines. His expertise in Combat Submission Wrestling and Jeet Kune Do is truly impressive, and his positivity makes the class enjoyable. The way he delves into the specific applications of each art form is incredibly insightful.

I have been training at KCMA for a few months now, having primarily looked for a gym that offers CSW. As an experienced martial artist who has trained at various academies in various arts/systems, I feel I can gauge the quality of instruction fairly well. I have to say that coach Keith is a very experienced martial artist, who, through his competence, personality, and open-mindedness has already made me better not only at grappling, but also at boxing and kickboxing. The atmosphere at KCMA is very open and welcoming, and even people completely new to martial arts are not overwhelmed or intimidated by what is being taught and how it is being taught. At the same time, experienced practitioners and competitors are being challenged and met at their level, so they can continue to progress. I’m looking forward to continue my martial arts journey at KCMA and would recommend this academy to anyone who is interested in building or advancing a martial arts skill set for themselves or their children.
