Hi, everyone --
I've been lurking here for a while, and have enjoyed reading a lot of the past posts. I thought I'd introduce myself, then ask a question ...
I'm just getting into FMA, and am training in Doce Pares eskrima now. I did train in Shotokan karate years ago, but only stuck with it for a year or so. I'm really feeling a connection with the Filipino styles, and hope that I can maintain my commitment level this time around. I'll try my hardest ...
I'm going to be in Las Vegas from August 7 - 10, and I'm wondering if there are any instructors that any of you would recommend that I try to get some training from (private lessons, or get permission to drop in on a class, etc.).
As I said, I'm an absolute beginner in Doce Pares eskrima right now. By the time August comes, I will have had, in addition to my weekly classes, a 2 day seminar with Guro Chris Petrilli, and a one day seminar with GM Cacoy Canete. I'm just including that so you know something about my level of experience (or lack thereof).
If you have any people you think I should contact for some training while I'm in Vegas, I'd love your advice.
Thanks for your help!
Liam
