Balintawak Arnis Cuentada Seminar with Grandmaster Bobby Taboada

A living legend of the martial arts world, Grandmaster (GM) Bobby Taboada, is coming to Portland, Maine to teach his extraordinary system of Filipino stick fighting! Inducted into the International Hall of Fame by the prestigious World Head of Family Sokeship Council, GM Taboada has spent over six decades mastering and refining an art that is breathtaking in its speed, precision, and devastating effectiveness. Rooted in the close-quarter fighting traditions tested in the streets of Cebu, the Balintawak Arnis Cuentada system is built on a simple, powerful principle: for every attack, there is a counter — and for every counter, there is a counter to that counter - keeping your opponent always under your complete control. Practitioners develop agility, precision, and an intuitive sense of combat flow through progressive drills and a unique sparring practice that emphasizes dynamic reactions to multiple attack angles. Whether you are a seasoned martial artist or a total beginner, this is your rare chance to train directly under the master who carried this art from the Philippines to New Zealand, Australia, and across the United States, building an international organization with students and schools spanning the globe. No experience is necessary — all levels and all systems are welcome! Come ready to sweat, learn, and be transformed.
