I know he sold his school to his senior Black Belt just promoted to 3rd Degree. I have not heard if he is or is not still involved there or not via the new owner. While I was there watching the test, the only certificate Jeff Arnold had displayed was his 4th Degree certificate from American Arnis. The question I have is that the TKD was for Mike and Jeff, and not (GM) Remy Presas. GM Presas had Shotokan and Judo rank as well as his training in the FMA's, (* Balintawak and Family style, as well as what else he may have picked up here and there *). I know Jeff was also involved with TKD, so I just wanted to clarify, as opposed to assume. Thank you Rich -- __--__-- Message: 4 Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2005 07:31:01 -0700 (PDT) From: davID To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] Answers re: American Arnis Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Thanks for the interest Jay. American Arnis was a descendant of Modern Arnis as taught by Remy Presas in the early 80's before the filipino martial arts took off in the United States. It was founded by Michael Replogle (California) and Jeff Arnold (Michigan) and was intended as a progressive learning system which combined filipino martial arts with korean and japanese arts. There was a strong push to keep traditional Dan-Kyu as an acknowledgement of rank progression. Both Replogle and Arnold were senior black belts (I don't recall their degree rankings) under Presas in both Modern Arnis and Filipino Karate (Presas' translation for sikaran?) As well as being ranked in Tae Kwon Do and Judo. Aikido and Wing chun theory and technique played a part as well. . . . As far as I know only a handful of other "American Arnis Black Belts" exist, most probably from Mr. Arnold's school in Michigan. The Art as a whole is dead. . . . david. ______________________________________________________ Yahoo! for Good Donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/ --__--__-- Message: 2 From: "Dustin B.
