We at ESKABO DAAN would like to make a rather interesting proposal to the FMA community. The proposal that we have come up with, is one designed to promote FMA as much as possible. As we all know there is a plethora of FMA styles and practitioner throughout California and the world. There are a number of styles that are well known to the public. However, the vast majority of the styles out there are not well known. We at ESKABO DAAN would like to change that.
From one underground martial art style to the others we propose that we support one another. To do so we aspire to put together as many seminars and as possible to achieve just that. The seminars would give those participating styles a chance to show to the public their method of FMA. During the seminar there would also be a number of other styles demonstrating their system.
For those of you who are not familiar with some of the seminars in which ESKABO DAAN has thrown allow me to give a brief synopsis. ESKABO DAAN like many other styles started off underground and training anywhere and everywhere. One of the main reasons why we trained was purely for the love of FMA and still is. It has only been a few years now that our organization has decided to come out to the public. Like a little kid going out to a new school anytime we went out we were the unknown to the vast majority. While out and about we always found comfort in the other unknown practitioners and before we knew it, became good friends and started a circle of FMA enthusiast. While out and about we have also built camaraderie with some of the bigger names of not only FMA but other arts as well.
Since then with our new found group of fellow FMA enthusiasts we have put together a number of FMA seminars to help promote the FMA community. We have done events for and or with:
GGM Ernesto Presas- Kombatan
