First and foremost, I would like to thank the late Master
Changhee Jhoon(Tae Kwon Do/Hapkido)for my rigorous body hardening, kicking power and joint locking skills.
I attribute my present awareness, quickness, empty hand, blade and stick/cane abilities
to Pangulong Guro Chuck Cadell III(Cabales/Cadell Serrada Escrima).
Further my gratitud to the late Tony Finchen and son Joe Finchen who gave me the knowledge
of the mat and grappling skills.
Without the guidance and friendship of these individuals I would not have been able to
develop the attributes and abilities I have today.
Further, I would like to express my sincere grattitude and respects to all of my fellow
instructors within the MMA(Midwest Martial Arts Association).
In addition, I would like to express my sincere gratitude and respects to Pangulong Guro
Anthony Davis, my present mentor and master in Serrada Escrima. Through Mr Davis' guidance, I will be able to further
my knowledge of Serrada Escrima.
It is my pleasure to represent the World Serrada Escrima Federation and Mr Davis throughout
the midwest.
