filipino martial arts packaged and sold as indigeneous. Granted there are elements of true african martial arts, and 52 blocks, which due to universal concepts and based upon similar traditional tribal structure could look like Filipino Martial arts, this pretty much looks like FMA sold as your own. Kylindi Iyi's hands have trapping and such but are distinctly different, traditional senegalse wrestling, different, 52 different, dambe different, but this looks identical to my native art.
Your native art is called "Moro-moro" in honor of the extensive "Moorish" (i.e. AFRIKAN) contribution to the Filipino martial arts, thus there will be similarities. Furthermore, this is a commercial, NOT an instructional video. It does not begin to touch the surface of what indigenous Afrikan martial arts are. I wish you continued success and greater discovery in your martial arts journey.
what style is this please reply

Is your book available at Barnes and Noble or Borders? I'd love to get a copy. It looks very interesting.

@haumana2000
I can give you a coupleof reasons why you are wrong.
1)we were here first. we are the oldest people in the world.
2) we traveled out of africa and from there many arts were built off of ours.
3)Every art has something in common. As long as all humans have two hands and feet there will be similarities.
4) Afrikans are not known for stealing culture. You may want to look closer to home for that.
