For the Community!
Hi Jeff,
Arnis or Eskrima is an indigenous martial arts of our Filipino people. Learning Arnis is touching back to our roots. My million thank yous for your workshop given to the Filipino Youth Initiative group last Sunday. The teachers and students enjoyed the time with you. From what I heard, they commend your work and dedication. I, especially appreciated the brief history of Arnis that you gave. I did not know any history before the workshop. I learned a lot from it. Your generosity of time, talents and expertise are very much appreciated.
Grateful,
Fe Rowland
