Question

[Homey]

Which FMA school was the first to use the title Guro?

[Homey]

with those who have 25 to 35 years experience anybody?

[eskrimador]

all those titles are garbage theres none of that back Home.. unless the style has gone commercial and is teaching to the public they make these titles....

[Homey]

So eskrimador since you call yourself that, do you teach yourself or do you have a teacher? and if you do how do you adress them by their first name? or Manong or Tata

The name eskrimador is not taken but given and earned. Guro means nothing more than teacher, same as sifu for Chinese arts. Dont read too much into it.

I think it's just a sign of respect for the person that's teaching you.
