The FMA - American students , Australians, British, Germans and other nationals had came to the Philippines for training in different places in the Philippines. The Pekiti-Tirsia Contributed since 1990 to the present about 1,556 pekiti-tirsia practicioners USA, Canada and Europe, and Doce Pares and Modern Arnis and other systems also had good number of students that came for training. These people spent for hotels, food , training and good time, plus souvenir of many kind if expressed in pesos also in thousands about also in millions.
So we in the FMA , it is to our concern that what we teach and having students, it contributes the 3 meals a day of our poor filipino families indirectly some had been benifted by recieving some cash money even not too big but at one time my student from Brazil and US who came for private lessons from January to July, had been very kind in giving a woman 100 pesos who was begging at Mc Donald and these two Karl , Tammy and Rob bought some food for the children in the streets. Most of my students who meet some of the poor people in the street specially children had been given little money for food.This alone is so much but so little to think but what the giving was so great in the eyes of God and humanity.
The culture that the FMA is giving to non-Filipinos shows that cross culture is something for people to think about that one way or another , people can live by the people, there is no such thing as an Island for one. All are for everybody to share and to be happy. This is culture.
The art that is shared to all is something of value. It is not the blade or the knife or the kick and punch but what life without loving life if life won't exist. since it exsit then we have to protect it. This is the role of pekiti-Tirsia, to educate , to discipline and to follow the religious tenets of the Philosophical discipline to believe in life, to believe in success , to believe in good health. In this we uphold our stand that no matter what happens the culture must prevail.
