The
World Modern Arnis Alliance was established for a two-fold purpose.
Our
first goal is to further the growth of Arnis throughout the world.
Secondly, in keeping with the example set by Remy Presas, our
intent is to set the highest technical standards possible for
the global Arnis community.
We
will achieve this by designing specific training programs that
will advance the progression of our art while developing maximum
student proficiency.
For
those who do not have immediate access to an instructor and who
are training on their own, rank promotion is still possible.
Students will have access to a directory of black belts, schools,
and instructors in the Modern Arnis community. These people will
be available to periodically assist students with their training
in preparation for their advancement. Geographical constraints
will not be a deterrent to the growth of Modern Arnis.
In
addition we have created a "Student Registry" so that
each member will have a record of their rank as they progress
through each level. This will prevent any discrepancy as to what
belt level a student or instructor has earned. Their credentials
will be available for verification.
