During the Xtreme Gap Stick and Knife Fighting programme you splitt your time between Marikina city in Manila and the idylic beaches of Palawan.

Marikina is a suberb of Manila (20 minutes from Downtown Manila on the sky train) and where you will be based for the first weeks training.

This is an intensive Stick and Knife fighting crash course, for beginners and not just for gap year students.

Below is a Gallery of some of the training sessions and accommodation in Marikina.
