Chaz Siangco firmly believes in ensuring that martial arts students can immediately apply what they learn. In his Filipino martial art, Derobio Eskrima, he employs a progressive approach with three variations to teach effective defense from the very first class.
Derobio Eskrima, meaning "Rhythm of the Horse," is a comprehensive martial art system that focuses on evading and conquering. Founded by Master Chaz Siangco and the Siangco Collective, it builds upon the Derobio Method of Eskrima taught by their maternal Grandfather, the late Great Grandmaster Braulio Tomada Pedoy. This expression of Eskrima integrates influences from various fighting styles, with an emphasis on progressive disarming techniques and versatile defense across different combat ranges. The core principle is encapsulated in "A.C.E Intent" (Advance, Cover, Empower), concentrating the mind on decisively neutralizing threats. Derobio Eskrima is about adaptability, efficiency, and control in combat.
