|
What is Dumog? Dumog is a generic word used in Central Philippines that refers to wrestling and grappling. In some part of Aklan Province in the Island of Panay it is known as opas. Dumog is a complete grappling and wrestling art. Its techniques are composed of choking (to-ok, lo-ok), joint locking (trangkadas), dislocation (pag-kalisa), tearing (paggisi) of muscles and tendons, throws (labay, itsa, ihaboy), and takedowns (panumba) designed to break bones and incapacitate opponents, as well as pressure point and nerve attack (pamislit). Its takedown techniques and body manipulations are base on the principles of physics and geometry.
