Master Ron England replied to the discussion 'Managing change'"Guro Lawrence
That is a good point about the original movements of the founders system being carried on by the son/or daughter or heir apparent of a system. Even though my martial roots are based in one particular FMA system, like most of us I have…"
Master Ron England replied to the discussion 'Managing change'"Guro Lawrence,
Wow well said, you have, as they say, "hit the nail on the head". If may add some personal observations: Over my years of experience in the Filipino Martial Arts, more than once I have had a student or lower level instructor…"

Master Ron England commented on the blog post 'Modern Arnis and the Long Blade'"GM Barber: This is such an important subject I felt compelled to reply, please allow me to make a few comments.

Master Ron England commented on the blog post 'Discretion is the better part of responsibility'"Guro Lawrence,
Your points are very well made. We as instructors in the lethal martial arts of the Philippines need to think about the images and information that we are presenting to the public. It seems that so many instructors/systems are trying…"
Master Ron England replied to the discussion 'New Shirts Coming'"There have been some very interesting comments regarding the proposed design for the new myfma.net shirt.
