Congratulations from the UK & Europe team to The Ohio Balintawak Team who had great success at the Arnold Classic 2010 USA
They won 5 Golds, 4 Silvers, and 1 Bronze!!!
The practitioners that participated in this year's 2010 event as follows: Guro Elmann Cabotage, Master Dale Ullom, Joe Evans, Wilmer Flores, Mitch York, and Guro Michael-Vincent Malanyaon.
The Ohio Balintawak Team is in the right direction to increase the promotion of the art in competition venues. A year ago at the Arnold Classic 2009, the team won 2 Golds and 4 Silvers with the following participants Heidi Hsieh, Kelly Miller, Mitch York, and Guro Michael-Vincent Malanyaon. Also at 2009 Laban Laro VII - 2 Silvers. In 2008, 3 Golds, 2 Silvers, 2 Bronze total at Arnold Classic 2008 and Wolf Pack Classic.
It should be the goal of all students and Instructors within World Balintawak International Team to promote our art and aspire to improve our skills and standing.
The momentum is already underway throughout the UK and European Balintawak group to create and train fighters to compete in any arena they choose.
Congratulations once again from the Balintawak UK & Europe Team
