For nearly half a century, the work of Placido Yambao has intrigued Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) aficionados all over the world. Yambao's manuscript, Mga Karunungan sa Larong Arnis , was the first widely released documentation of a popular, and at the same time, esoteric art. Written in archaic Tagalog, Placido Yambao's book remained an obscure resource understood nad appreciated by only a select few. Now, with over 500 photos and exclusive supplementary materials, the enigma surrounding Yambao's art is unraveled as FMA master Rey Galang unveils the secrets of Placido Yambao's legacy. 184 pages. 7x10. Paperback.
Born in the heart of Manila's Chinatown, Master Rey Galang was exposed at an early age to the Chinese operas and legends of warriors and heroes that spawned and nurtured his love and interest in the martial arts. Having lost his father at an early age, Master Rey's early pursuit of the martial arts was nurtured and encouraged by his uncles. Stemming from a family with a tradition and history of military and police career officers and Filipino-Chinese bloodlines, the discipline and demands of martial arts training became natural for him. Master Rey attributes his exposure to the martial arts, specifically Filipino and Chinese disciplines, to his family.
