Kalis Ilustrisimo is a distinct system within the broader spectrum of Filipino Martial Arts (FMA), known for its practicality, blade-based orientation, and battlefield realism.

Kalis Ilustrisimo is a Blade-Oriented vs. Stick-Based. Techniques are designed for use with swords, knives, and machetes, emphasizing cutting angles and realistic weapon engagement. Movements prioritize edge awareness, which is crucial when using live blades. Other FMA Systems like Modern Arnis or Doce Pares) use the rattan stick as a training proxy, often focusing first on sticks and later transitioning to blades.

The material on the app is fresh... New material will be uploaded weekly, cataloguing individual ilustrisimo techniques as well as sequences of movements. Custom training packages are available for those who want to learn specific pieces of the art. By networking with practitioners from around the globe, we can share ideas and create community. 'SINA UNA" means "OLD STYLE", I believe there's wisdom in the old ways... I teach from the beginning and show what I was taught by GM Tony Diego, unfiltered, unchanged, the exact transmission. It's important to learn everything from its root. That is what this project is about, understanding the art of K.I.R.O. from its root.
