Kamusta, The past year at Berdugo Martial Arts has been fun filled and fast paced. We have had promotions, new students, seminars, demonstrations, tournaments and clinics. There has also been a revived sense of pride in our art and ourselves; the reason that Berdugo Martial Arts is the North American Headquarters for Kombatan Presas Style. First and foremost we would like to recognize the promotion of Junior Grandmaster Michael Bowers to full Grandmaster. Grandmaster Bowers has dedicated 19 years to the learning and teaching of Kombatan Presas Style with no substitution or modification to Great Grandmaster Presas’ vision. You can find out more on GM Bowers at http://www.berdugo.us/instructors/mike.htm and his perspective on Kombatan Presas style in the latest FMA Digest, http://www.berdugo.us/Docs/articles/Special- Edition_IPMAF.pdf.

The first Informative Issue was, “FMA Unity and Legends” which was thought to be appropriate telling about the true legends of the Filipino martial arts, and practitioners that carried on styles and systems of the Filipino martial arts and have passed on and the Unity of the Filipino martial arts, some fact some questioning. Then followed by “Learn in 6 Teach in 12” by Grandmaster Bram Frank, “Balintawak Basics (abecedar- io)” by Sam Buot Sr., “Kuntaw Basics” and “TRACMA Basics” by Steven Dowd, Serrada Eksrima by Khalid Khan and finally “Villabrille-Largusa Kali System” by Zena Sultana Babao, a great start for the online maga- zine. Since then the FMA Informative staff has gone out and procured many issues finally adding up to 100 issues that are packed with information, knowledge and are very interesting and are loaded with informative material. In checking the count the ten (10) most downloaded issues so far have been: 1. Informative Issue #91 - The Filipino Way 2. Informative Issue #28 - Filipino Cook’in 3.
