Doce Pares in Michigan?

[Enoch]

Hello Everyone,

Does anyone know of a Doce Pares Instructor in MI?
Detroit Metro area.

Thank-you in advance for your help.

Peace,
Enoch

Hey Enoch,

I am not sure of anyone down in Detroit. However VanHorn in
Grand Rapids and Bong Journales (west side) I believe both
compete or have their students compete in the Doce Pares
WEKAF events in the Philippines.

Grand Master Bong Jornales is the Master to several current and reigning world champions. In my opinion, he is the best and worth the travel. We are in Grand Rapids, he is in Holland-one hour away and we drive it 2 and sometimes 3 times per week. He is not Doce Pares, however. He trains in the Philippine style of Arnis Sikaran Jornales System. Similar-but different. We compete with Doce Pares at regionals, nationals, and Worlds.

I will provide contact info if you are interested.

Thanks Brian and Mariah. Good information.

Mariah- We have a common friend- Craig Marks. He has been out to my club for some fund raisers we have done for his family, and he recently came out and taught some CMA at a summer clinic we hosted. He has spoke of you in the highest regard.

Thank-you both very much. I was hoping to find an instructor a little closer to home.

Yes, Mr Marks spoke very highly of you and Grand Master Bong Jornales.
I hope to have the oppurtunity to train with Him and yourself one day.

Thank-you,
Enoch
