The Quartet at the Martial Arts Symposium

They’re not just coming to the Martial Arts Symposium… they’re arriving like a storm.
Four masters. Four lifetimes of dedication. One unforgettable weekend.
Grandmaster Datu Tim Hartman.
Grandmaster Tuhon Mike Williams.
Punong Guro Tye Botting.
Guro May Williams.
This quartet represents the living pulse of Filipino Martial Arts. From the refined flow of Modern Arnis to the blade precision of Dekiti Tirsia… from the depth of Balintawak and the power of Silat to the roots of Kung Fu, Kuntaw, and Sikaran – they don’t just teach systems. They embody them.
Together, they have inspired instructors and students across the United States, Canada, and beyond. Not only with their technical brilliance and battlefield-proven knowledge – but with their ability to connect, to communicate, to reach the human being behind the stance.
They don’t teach at you.
They teach into you.
Every correction sharpens you.
Every story roots you.
Every drill transforms you.
This isn’t just another seminar. It’s an experience — the kind that shifts perspective, reignites passion, and reminds you why you started training in the first place.
April 17th through 19th
Waterville Valley, New Hampshire
