Re: Conan: The Current Movie in Progress.....
Lua is extremely rare even in a state brimming with martial arts instruction passed down from thousands of Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino plantation worker immigrants. We have multigenerational judo, aikido, karate, kung fu, and escrima schools, as well as some big MMA names like Gracie, Inoue, and Penn. Lua is really kept on the down low--you won't find it in the phone book. Even if Momoa had been taught Lua, he wouldn't openly use it on camera.
