FMA is for Filipino Martial Arts. FMA Circle is a group of persons and organizations sharing a common interest or revolving about a common center. That common center is the Art and Craft of Martial Arts as practiced, and developed by Filipino Warriors and Scholars of the Warrior Ways. In short, FMA Circle is dedicated to any Martial Arts as practiced by Filipinos.CONCEPTUAL MARTIAL ARTS SOCIETY-ILOILO ESTABLISHED

The 8th chapter/branch of the Conceptual Martial Arts Society (CMAS), CMAS-Iloilo, was recently formalized by CMAS-Main core member Raymund Antonio Maguad of Murcia in Iloilo City. The group was started last June 2005 as an informal study group focusing on the different Negrosanon Filipino martial arts of arnis/eskrima.
The other CMAS chapters and their heads are CMAS-Main/Alunan (Founder James U. Sy Jr.), CMAS-Porferia (Founder Narciso “Hansy” L. Alojado), CMAS-USLS (Founders Alojado and Sy), CMAS-Eroreco (Victorio C. Perez), CMAS-Alijis (Dante L. Robles), CMAS-PNRC (Lafayette A. Diamante), and CMAS-Candoni (Pastor Leo B. Tabligan).
CMAS is a non-profit, non-political martial arts brotherhood organized to research, study, document, systematize, establish, stimulate interest in, promote, and/or propagate indigenous and foreign based Negrense Filipino martial arts and other Asian and Occidental martial arts in Bacolod City and the rest of the Negros Island, and if possible, in other parts of the Philippines and the world. It is dedicated to the development of physically, mentally, and spiritually superior men and women for the benefit and betterment of society.
Every CMAS branch has their own specialty but most of them focus on FMA. CMAS-Iloilo practices Lapu-Lapu Viñas arnis, oido de caburata, Togle style modern arnis , and Yasay sable.
CMAS-Iloilo has 6 members, all of whom are in the medical field. Plans are currently being ironed out for the group to travel to Bacolod City to study under the respective heads of the arts they are practicing.

MR. JAMES SY;
ARE YOU A CHINESE, OR FILIPINO. WHY DO YOU MIXED FILIPINO WITH CHINESE AND JAPANES MARTIAL ARTS.
IN FILIPINO HISTORY YOU SHOULD READ ALWAYS. MY GREAT GRANDFATHER IS A HERO. SOME OF YOUR PERSONALITIES ARE NO WHERE TO BE FOUND IN THE REVOLUTION WITH THE SPANIARDS AND JAPANESE. WHERE WERE THEY AT THAT TIME. SLEEPING OR HIDING.
OUR GREATGRANDFATHER FOUGHT BRAVELY WITH THE USE OF FILIPINO MARTIAL ARTS. NOT BASTON OR ARNIS.
AGAINST FOREIGN INVADERS. IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE HISTORY . GO BACK AS A STUDENT AND DONT TEACH FMA. BECAUSE HERE IN THE STATES YOU A LAUGH DOG.
