Zu'bu KaLi Ilustrisimo is a devastating and highly effective form of Filipino Martial Arts, retaining all of the core techniques, concepts and strategies devised by the late Grandmaster Antonio 'Tatang' Ilustrisimo. Additionally, the system incorporates the dynamic expression of movement unique to Grandmaster Epifanio 'Yuli' Romo.
A blade-based art, this system differs from other forms of Filipino Martial art in that there are no weapon-to-weapon blocking techniques. Instead, Grandmaster Romo incorporates direct, preemptive situational destructions, parrying methods and explosive disarming techniques. Training in Zu'bu Kali Ilustrisimo includes, but not limited to, the use of:
* barong - a leaf-shaped sword, and the favourite of Grandmaster Ilustrisimo.
* pinuti - a narrow sword suitable for stabbing and slashing
* kris - a wavy-edged sword
* tungkod and sungkod - four- and three-foot staffs
* pisaw - knife
* solo baston - single stick
* doble baston - double stick
* panyo - handkerchief
* lubas pangamut - hardcore empty-handed fighting
