AZ FMA - Mission

 To attempt to propogate Filipino Martial Arts in Arizona and the Southwest Region. With the help and support of various FMA independent practitioners, schools and FMA martial art suppliers. Also with friends and acquaintances who are carrying on the FMA tradition in the state of Arizona we'll work in a joint venture to keep the art alive in the southwest. Just as Karate, and other martial arts have entered into the mainstream we have representatives from every walk of life - expressing there love for the Art and Pamilya, Pag Anak meaning Family in Tagalog (Pilipino dialect). This site is devoted to the FMA practitioners in our area trying to keep the Spirit Alive. Send us an email to list your site/school.
