The Houston Stickfighting Association will be at it again for the 1st of
quarterly scheduled combative events featuring martial artists of all
"stick-based" fighting styles and NOT LIMITED TO, the Filipino MA systems, but
also open to Japanese, Okinawan, Chinese, Thai also including European-style
MAists.

  Matches are fought with various sorts of martial art weaponry from the Filipino
rattan sticks, wooden/rubber training dagger duels, wooden sword and dagger,
staff, wooden longswords in series of "friendly exchanges" betwen players in a 2
minute round. This is a FULL-CONTACT event featuring members of this
organization going at it where there are no judges, no trophies, no winners, or
losers. This is not a tournament. Just a group of guys open-minded enough to
cross skills with other martial arts weapons from the Oriental martial arts to
the Western/European(Medival/Rennaisance era) weapons systems.

The event will begin at 9 am in the morning at Oyster Creek Park off of highway
6 South between Dulles Ave and Settlers Way. Matches go on until the afternoon
and there will also be a BBQ cookout to add to the occasion.

The Houston Stick Fighting Association led by Johnathan Bolton held their 1st
combative meet among FMA and other MA weapons-based players earlier today,
Sunday the 26th beginning at around 10 am at Hermann Park stage left to the
miller Outdoor Theatre in Houston Texas.
    At the gathering, there were instructors from the various FMA schools
throughout Houston with their students. Isias Ginson showed up and officiated
most of the matches. Then there was Ed Kwan, an IMAF FMA guy from Clearlake who
came to watch. Leo Quitalon with his LESKAS/Lighting Escrima crew from Sugarland
was also there to play along. There was also some ARMA[Assoc. Rennaisance M A]
players, and even some kendo players all in good fun under the sun of one
beautiful day.

   Bill Little and his training partner, Mike Wise drove in from Beaumont and
picked me up this morning from Tomball right at one hour prior to the scheduled
time to meet at the park. It turned out we were the first ones there. I'm
gratefully happy to make some new friends and in re-acquainting with old friends
that showed up to extend their support. Thanks to my old pal, Joaquin Rendon and
(others with him) for handling the video camera during the matches.

   This day marked the beginning of strong potential for all stick-based MA
weapons practitioners beginning in the Greater Houston area alone to be unified
under the sun to share support for each other in a form of "friendly exchanges"
of skills with no egos, prizes or politics. All of us turned out to be great
sports with each other. I know for sure I acknowledged all the hits I took from
every sparring partner I traded blows with. In fact, I myself actually enjoyed
getting hit just to encourage my sparring partner at the time to keep at it til
I throw some back.

   We also had matches with the smakstix/actionflex padded sticks with the helmet
on. Those things were created perfectly if you did not want to be seriously
hurt. We didn't even need any gloves to protect from the handshots because the
sticks were very soft. I was letting myself get hit as hard and as often just to
test if a person can get hurt by one of those things during a match with the
smakstix with Manong Joe Galleon... and man, he loved to bang for a man over 60
years of age!
    There was also dagger duel simulation & espada y daga matches with catchers
chest guards on, and we went to the live stick where we wore the WEKAF
protective vest. I personally did not really care much for the WEKAF vests but I
put it on anyway and still had a great time. I got to have fun letting myself
get hit hard to see if their heavy shots would actually penetrate through the
armor, while holding the stick in my weaker hand[I'm a lefty] but we sparred
with lighter, thinner rattan sticks though. The last thing we needed that day
was for anyone to get seriously injured. I did get to be the only one wearing my
fencing mask as everyone else wore the Doce Pares, Canete cage helmets.

   My last match was against a long wooden sword made of some really really hard
wood versus my double sticks. During the beginning of the match, I went ahead
and took some of those hits since I was up to feeling a little pain that day,
and since it was a heavy weapon, those were some really heavy hits! I even took
a thrust from the tip of the wooden sword on my lower bicep and it did not take
much to feel that. I recieved a slight knot from that too. I just knew I hit
home when I got inside of the long range of the sword and opened up my own
little flurry of shots on the armor and mask. Either way, in the end my new
sword fighting friend Jay, expressed a strong desire to learn FMA. I assured him
it will boost his sword game to even greater heights. I do wish him well with it
and look forward to seeing his game get better at the next meet. Thanks most of
all to Johnathan Bolton once again for organizing a successful gathering along
with Manong Joe Galleon. I made many new
  friends and even stronger re-acquaintances that day and I'm very happy.

   Can you dig it?

   Daniel

Hello everyone, Daniel Arola here to inform everyone on board that I will be
moving back to the Houston area for good. After the Holiday Season blows over
location and schedule of training will be announced. It looks like there are
quite a few locations I am looking at and with Houston being the big city as it
is, will take some time for me to make my final choice where I shall start
first.
I am very happy to notice the progressively rising interest in the Filipino
Martial Arts throughout the Greater Houston area since I left Houston to move to
NC since early 2005. I hope all the FMA schools in Houston and throughout shall
continue to grow and prosper.

   Stay tuned.....

DAMAG-INC Aug 8, 2006 Rigger Josh spars with beginners with live rattan
sticks

3 min 43 sec - Aug 9, 2006
Average rating:   (2 ratings)
Description: Monday evening, August 8, 2006 at the G-Mole training club.... For
the first time, Chris G and Fraz spar with the live rattan sticks in the 1st
round of this video. Rigger Josh jumps in the 2nd round with Fraz, then spars
with Chris G in the following round. Despite the marks and bruises left on each
person who partook in the sparring session, they admit to have had great fun in
doing it.

I was so excited to see this once I opened this email. Months ago I was asked by
the publisher of FMA Digest to submit a write-up about the DAMAG-INC Kali
Combatives group to put on as an article in a future issue of FMA Digest.
Anyway, the links below will lead to the current issue of FMA Digest which has
the article about DAMAG-INC. I encourage all martial arts enthusiasts to
