Legacy Filipino Martial Arts is a weapons-based martial arts system that pulls from both modern and traditional Filipino Martial Arts. We use sticks, knives, swords, as well as empty hand combat. Within the art, we incorporate striking, disarming of weapons, joint locking techniques, and takedowns.
Legacy Filipino Martial Arts strives to give all who wish to learn the ability and knowledge to feel confident about being able to defend themselves. We believe in working smart not hard and our method of martial arts reflects just that.
One of our philosophies is that anyone should be able to defend themselves adequately. At Legacy FMA you will learn how to defend against armed attackers as well as unarmed attackers. One of our specialities is the ability to use everyday items as a tool for self defense.

I've been training with Legacy FMA since July 2021. I don't have much experience with many other schools, but I can confidently say that there aren't many places as warm, welcoming, and talented as the community members of Legacy. The curriculum is organized, practical, and incredibly empowering. I'm a 5'0" smaller-framed Pinay and after hearing about the targeted attacks on Asian women and elders back in March 2021, I used to be afraid every time I left my home. But after a year of training with Master Joseph and his excellent team of guros, I can stand in power and with the confidence that I can protect myself and my loved ones should any harm try to come our way. So grateful to have found a school and community that honors our ancestral history, watches out for its community members, and makes us look damn good doing it!! Can't wait to start sparring and possibly represent the school at tournaments and such. Love you Legacy! Some other highlights: - Our serrada style was systemized by Angel Cabales, a 4'9" Filipino immigrant and death match champion - The school's gender ratio is about 50-50, and the sisterhood shared among the women practitioners + the master's teachings embrace the Filipinx tradition of women warriors - Lots of parking, family-friendly environment, everyone is always down to train and help others sharpen their skill If you're reading this and thinking about trying a class, DO IT!! You won't regret it!!
