I was wondering if anyone could tell me of a place/instructor where I could learn any of the Filipino Arts i.e. Escrima, Kali, and Arnis.

P.S. If you know anyway of helping me find a place I would appreciate it.

For Modern Arnis, contact Sal Todaro at 610-543-2624 or SALVI1@aol.com

I'm in Philadelphia 4-5 times a year if you're interested in private lessons.

Best,

Steve Lamade

No problem. Contact me at lhommedieu@hotmail.com and we'll set something up for the next time I'm in Philadelphia - probably in a couple of months or so.
I teach San Miguel Eskrima and Estacada. For more information:

I highly recommend Mr. Muhammed, I met him at last years Sayoc Sama Sama. Also consider:

I have meet Sal and he is good for Modern Arnis as Steve has pointed out.

I also would not mind geting together with someone like Steve, even for nothing more than a discussion.

As to Mr. Muhammad, if he is the gentleman I am thinking of he also has a Lakn Rank in Modern Arnis, and would be anotehr place to look, only it is further away , from my recollection.
