@Eskrimadora

I also had that idea for a long time. But as you say there isn't such a system with points skills etc.

I can talk with my trainer (Marcel van Dongen) about the idea or grand master Frans Stroeven (trainer of my trainer). You know him? He's head of the World Knife Fighting Society, WKFS, head of doce pares Eskrima in Europe and sure one of the best - if it's not THE- best teacher in the world.

He can have some big influence in that.

So, did you participate on this WC in Mexico?

[Eskrimadora]

@WarriorRus I did compete in the 11th WC in Mexico and I took 2 golds in both single and double stick fighting. Our team was only 5 but we took home over 12 medals!

I can't wait for the 12th in the PI.

Mariah, what do you think about escrima becoming an olympic sport, do you think you can help make that happen??

[Eskrimadora]

That would be awesome! I am told that the issue with the Olympics is that for a sport to be recognized and inducted in, it must be completely ready to go, world wide. That means that countries from around the world must have specific, clear, and consistent rules and judging and a system set in place.

Unfortunately, even in WEKAF, there is not a rigid "system" with points for specific skills, theatrics, dress, presentation, stunts, etc.

I am 100% behind the effort. Let me know how I can help.

You're so pretty and deadly. A true Femme Fatale! You should be in Hollywood, too. I would like to suggest a movie for you = you fighting Freddie Krueger and Jason Vorheese. Or maybe fighting along on the side with agent Bourne. Or better yet, as a James Bond girl. Anyway, you go girl.

[Eskrimadora]

Maybe someday soon somebody important will see one of my videos and ask me to be in the movies!

I am in love!...

Wow, you have so much talent and a very nice flow. It would be beyond awesome if you mastered one of the styles of your own ancestors as well, just because. But either way you are really awesome.
