FORGING THE FILIPINO FIRE Doug Marcaida Pt 1
Doug reveals all about growing up, discovering martial arts and the journey it has taken him on from Kali to international fame on hit History Channel show Forged In Fire. He is interviewed by Mick Tully.
Doug Marcaida is a martial artist, edged weapons specialist, and knife designer born in the Philippines, based in Upstate New York. Doug’s interest in martial arts began at the age of 8, but he did not begin formally training in the arts until he was 16. At age 25 he discovered his love for Filipino Martial Arts, and the rest is history.
Doug Marcaida served in the US Air Force for 8 years, then became a Respiratory Therapist for 20 years, all while teaching and honing his Filipino martial skills. He developed his own style of Filipino Martial Arts, called Marcaida Kali and his core belief: It’s not about how many you hurt, it’s about how many you protect. This motto eventually evolved into Doug’s popular catchphrase “It will K.E.Al” ( Keep Everyone Alive).
