First Post From Ontario
I have been in Ontario for less than 4 weeks and I have been teaching/training in Modern Arnis with a couple of great guys already.
Mike and David sure have made my transition to life in Ontario much easier and it’s great to have a couple of friends like them already.
I met them through Master Brian Zawilinski. In the past couple of years, Mike and David have brought Brian up for a couple of seminars. My wife and I attended the last one in September of 2006 in Stouffville. What you see is the group picture after that seminar.

We have begun discussing plans to spread the wonderful art of Modern Arnis throughout the Greater Toronto area and Ontario. I will chronicle those efforts and my thoughts on various aspects of the art.

I am passionate about martial arts and self defense. I train in and teach Filipino Martial Arts and self defense. I love teaching private lessons, more so than group classes!
