MKG INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION
MKG International is a martial arts organization based on the Minnesota Kali Group and Guro Rick Faye’s training methods, instructor development and approach. It’s focus is to bring the benefits of the martial arts to the general public. Rick’s school, instructors and approach to the art is epitomized by a quote from his teacher Dan Inosanto: “a good instructor creates an environment where knowledge reveals itself”. Our branch locations, which focus and specialize in MKG’s trademarked Phase Class program, have taken the Minnesota Kali Group atmosphere, curriculum and approach and brought it to their location.
In addition to the branch schools, there are close to 200 instructors certified by Guro Rick Faye to teach the curriculum via the "Kali Group method". These MKG Instructor Association members may be teaching at a branch location or at another martial arts organization.
The MKG method is a mixture of arts and methods from many different sources. Over the years this outline has proven effective for teaching a wide variety of students. Our goal is bring the benefits of martial arts to as many different types of students as possible. Using the J.K.D. concept of attribute training and development we have put together programs that help the students attain a higher level of proficiency and personal well being. We believe that the martial arts of today can be used to better the world. Our instructors use the art to point out life messages.
