Hey gang, There was a Modern Arnis seminar held in Edgewater Park
NJ at Master Jose Torres's school last Sunday. Two sessions with the
beginner's starting from 9am til noon, then an advanced session from
5pm til 8:30pm. Taught by Edessa Ramos who travelled all the way
from Switzerland to teach, is the European representative of the
International Modern Arnis Federation Philippines. For those of you
who do not know what Arnis is. It is martial arts from the
Philippines based on stickfighting and blade work which includes
knives and swords as well as empty hand skill. I got the news at the
very last minute so there wasn't much time to get the word out. The
cost was an incredible deal and it was a shame that more people
didn't get the chance to attend. It seems that the NAFMA
organization has started a new relationship with Master Ramos she
will be the ranking member in NAFMA for the Filipino martial arts.
There are more instructional workshops planned in the near future.
Pics from this last event will be posted shortly!

Cheers!

Mel
