please correct me if i am wrong.
Not trying to start anything just want to get an idea of when and where the school came into exsistance
Thanks for asking.
By no means was I the first nor have never claimed to be the first to teach the Filipino Martial Arts in this area.
Three years ago, the late GM Remy A. Presas and my instructor, Guro David Ng gave me permission to teach Modern Arnis in Greensboro.
Actually, in terms of teaching the FMAs, I was also preceeded by David Russell, who was a former student of the late GM Presas and currently of GM Bobby Toboada.
Mr. Russell, whom I had met for the first time last year, had been teaching the Filipino Martial arts from the early/mid 90's till now.
Here is my lineage:
