nice dude =) i am a phase 1 practitioneer of Kali Sikaran=)
and tell me about it, the one word to discribe theese philipino arts is : variation! we practise flow so we can punch hard many times instead of 1 leap across the room^^
we also use Sticks witch are 66 cm. long and knives,sikaran(kickboxing,muy thai) and pununtukan(disabling muscles and nerve clusters) and kadena de mano, wich is close combat, flow with backhand strikes,elbows, fingers and joint locks, we also wrestle, wrestling is with no rules and learn to get out of a ground situation on top, wich is nessesary^^
Just wanted to share my interrests with the rest here=) so hello im new to this forum=)
