DOS ARMAS GATHERING 2026
The Dos Armas 1st Instructor Gathering 2026 aims to conduct a comprehensive review of all Dos Armas programs and drills. This ensures that every authorized instructor, whether assigned to a country or region, is consistently applying the standardized curriculum provided by Eskrido Malaybalay. The gathering serves to uphold and reinforce the high standards of the program across all teaching bodies.
In addition, the event will introduce key components of Filipino martial arts, including:
• Pangamot – Barehand self-defense against knife attacks
• Duhay Pinuti – Techniques involving two Filipino fighting blades
• Duhay Kutsilyo – Combat using two knives
• Olisi y Daga – Stick and dagger fighting methods
We welcome beginners and practitioners from all disciplines who are eager to learn and become part of the Dos Armas team. Whether you’re just starting your journey or bringing experience from another martial arts background, we invite you to train, grow, and uphold the values and standards of Eskrido Malaybalay.
