International Masters Seniors Competition & No Gi Worlds International Masters Seniors Congratulations to Coach Stephen for taking Silver and Bronze in the International Masters Seniors Competition in Brazil and for posting the same result at the No Gi Worlds International Masters Seniors in LA held late July and early August.
During his time in LA, Stephen also completed an intense referee's course for Black Belts held by Master Alvaro the technical director of CBJJ and IBJJF. There where only 7 attendents including Leo Viera and many questions where raised and answered. Coach Stephen had this to say " Experienced refs and coaches who are aware of the rules are an important part of competition, in time we hope to run our own courses with the recognition of IBJJF to improve this aspect of the sport in the Philippines " Fairtex Muay Thai training Camp Welcome back to our Muay Thai Instructor Carlo Vicencio who spent most of July at Fairtex Muay Thai training camp in Thailand during the month of July.
