Filipino KunTao
KunTao is a warrior system that consists of a very direct approach to engaging in a conflict. This of course, makes KunTao an extremely practical and efficient fighting art for modern time self-defense use; with various open hand striking methods and low line kicks combined with tearing at soft targets along with nerve attacks and joint destruction. These are followed up with a variety of grabbing methods to a choice of take downs and off-balancing methods that make this martial art very unique. Filipino KunTao incorporates techniques that provide models of self-defense from common attacks including punches, grabs, chokes, pushes, kicks, take downs, weapons and multiple attackers.
Filipino KunTao is presented in a full curriculum with aspects of varying disciplines within the art. Filipino KunTao's base curriculum is divided into the follow modules of learning:
--Locks
--Chokes
Filipino Kun Tao has a non-formulaic approach to a martial defense system. Filipino KunTao predicates itself on teaching fundamental principles and concepts to each practitioner. As the practitioner progresses and learns the basic elements, philosophies, and application; he/she will develop techniques based on the system that best match their athleticism, height, weight, age, and mobility. In the world today, movement is not predetermined, or scripted; so why should the martial arts?
When a martial "art", or self-defense system, does not follow a pattern-base, it becomes harder to grasp and requires regular practice. It is also impossible to write a detailed curriculum for Modern Filipino Kun Tao and present it in any media. With the slightest of variables, techniques might actually change even in the slightest from person to person.
