From 16 to 27 March, I went again in Cebu to get the Eskrima official test that I passed with successful on 26th, obtaining two certificates, the instructor certificate level 1, and the certificate of authority to teach and propagate the World Nickelstick Eskrima Self-Defense Balintawak Style, a true and living Filipino Martial Arts-Arnis. It was a great and tough experience, with 5 hours per day of training by the supervision of Grand Master Nick Elizar and his son Master Norman Elizar. This time, I took with me a student of mine from Okinawa, Matthew Merritt, who got himself the certificate of assistant instructor. My congratulations to him.Personally, It is a huge satisfation to be the firt instructor qualified in Nickelstick Balintawak in all Japan, as well in Italy.
I want the say a big thanks to GM Nick and Master Norman to having been trust on me, and for their availability, and knowledge. Thank you also to their students for helping us. See you on 2019
