Another great learning opportunity just came to fruition from Andy Wilson and the MKG crew. Joel Juanitas (one of only two certified teachers under Tony Somera) will be in town visiting and teaching a two hour intensive class on Bahala Na. This will be a primer for when Guro Tony Somera visits Seattle, WA. on October 23-24th 2010. Hope to see you there!
Bahala Na was the slogan for Grand Master Leo Giron’s battalion during WWII. It translates as “come what may”. The art is based on certain terrain, multiple opponents, and is known for the long range techniques or what we call “Larga Mano”. Even though we train with sticks, Giron Escrima is mostly a blade art. For those of you interested in Filipino martial arts we highly recommend this workshop!
For students of ALL LEVELS!
Master Joel has over 20 years of training in Giron Escrima Arnis exclusively under Grand Master Tony Somera and the late Grand Master Leo Giron. If you have any questions, his email is [email protected]
