The Villasin Balintawak style starts with lesson A, B and C….

Lesson A: Lesson A is the 12 strikes, which can be done with the Eskrima stick, Knife, Pocket Stick or Empty Hand.
This lesson teaches you how and where to attack, this is a good guide to learning the weak spots of the body and some basic body movement.

Lesson B: Lesson B is how to block the 12 strikes and next step from Lesson A. B Lesson includes at-random.

Lesson C: Lesson C is block the 12 strikes with a counter and at-random, Lesson C connects to Group 1-5 and “the play”.

John Villasin is the youngest of 5 boys – Jesus “Jingga” (RIP), Jose Jr “Joey”, Bianor “Banoh”, Dennis (RIP).

Ver Villasin is the son of our father’s 1st degree cousin, Severino Villasin, Sr. He is also the godchild of our Dad. Ver is a dear cousin and is like a brother to us. Dad has been treating him like his own son. We are glad he proliferated his learnings of the Balintawak arnis to this day.

Thank you.
