Lua - The Ancient Hawaiian Martial Art
A fierce and secretive art now being taught openly by a true Master.  This is one of those arts that we've heard of since the 70's, where you'd spot the Lua people in photos with other, more well known, Masters out of Hawaii.  Now they are opening it up to the world.  An amazing arsenal of archaic weapons and very different animal forms - shark bite style anyone?
