Weekends? I spoke to Mr. Haas last night (because I found his practice knives in the gym) if we can get a chance to practice he's willing to do it also. We just have to choose a time and for how long (I guess whenever :biggrinbo). Any suggestions?

Art,

A couple of hours and a half is okay. Let us know when is the exact time but I would prefer Saturday so we can have the next day to relax, recover and spend time with the family.

To all were present and attended the seminar this past weekend in Florida.

Thank for your presence and all the efforts inorder to learn the most traditional original PTK. I have seen the adjustment that each one had done to keep up the missing materials

. I wish to express my deepest thanks to Dino Martinez, It was the great dedication of Dino that made possible for my coming to Florida and for this I have appointed Dino Martinez as the State Director of the state of Forida for the Pekiti-Tirsia Global Organizaiton, Artvilla my kababayan and Clint, my visayan partner in visayan dialect of the Boca Raton Hotel and Club to Neil and Abson and to all his students, to Lavone and her students and to the Miami group to the Dragon Police Brothers and to Mr. and Mrs. Gabriel Martinez for coming from San Antonio to assist me in the seminar and to Guro and Princes De Leon , to Puno Baet Garimot for spending his time and providing us the filipino food and to Victor for giving us the beautiful Gym to use for the indoor seminar.

The coming of the Consul General of the Philippines Consulate of Florida addressing the open of the seminar together with his wife was a great honor for everybody.

The great opportunity for each one in Florida to be attending my seminar planned on August 11-12 next two months.

See you again next seminar.

Salamat Kaayo!

Greetings!

It is with great appreciation that I write to say that our long planned seminar with GT Leo Gaje was a success! Moreso than I could have imagined 3 months ago. I received such amazing support from all over the state of Florida and it was a true honor for me to meet the many martial artists from various styles and systems and varied walks of life. My thanks to Tony Torre from Miami for his early and continued support and creative mind, to Arthur Villanueva for his steady and persistent training with me, his friendly disposition and true pride in his heritage, to Clint Cayson for graciously accommodating our guest with world-class lodging and keeping Tuhon company when I could not, to Abdon Borges whose enthusiasm and sheer excitement was motivation enough to put on the seminar and for opening your home to us - Thank You, to Victor Rivera for an incredible venue for our event, the Phillipine Consul General in Ft. Lauderdale, our distinguished guests Abon Baet and Jun DeLeon, Neil and Helena Cauliffe, American Dragon in Coral Springs, LaVonne Martin and her students from Sarasota, Paul Carter and Company from Jacksonville, the Tarrago Brothers from Miami, Roberto and Javier Morales of Orlando and all of our participants and guests who helped to make this a memorable gathering and for the spirit of cooperation and encouragement that, for me, made this seminar special. A special "thousand thank-you's" go out to Mataas Na Guro Gabriel Martinez and his incredible wife Marisa for everything they did this past weekend to help keep me sane and allow all the small details to come together seemlessly. I cannot say enough how everyone appreciated your being there at the seminar.

Lastly, I extend my gratitude to Grand Tuhon Gaje (aka the Grand TITAN) for doing what you do better than anyone else, for sharing your family's treasure with us and giving everyone in attendance an experience not soon forgotten. We all look forward to you return soon and hope your time in Florida was excellent!

So glad we all could meet and train together as friends in the art...

Dino, it is only right to give a specail treat for the man. Staying in the Resort was the only thing I could offer. I am glad that everyone is happy...

As the soreness fading, we are ready for the next "intensive" training! Could you let us know the sked if you ever have one? Playalinda Beach isn't that far... or maybe if Abdon can get more guys to train that would be awesome.

Hi All,

Glad to hear everything went so well, it sounds like an event that I sorely missed!
I'm also very happy to see the comeraderie between Garimot and PTK.
Two systems which I hold in very high regard.

Peace,
