Fall Training Camp in the Catskills

[DoxN4cer]

I found this on another forum, and thought that I would pull it over here.

Tom Bolden is a very skilled individual, possessing an uncanny blend of speed, power and flow. Anybody with in a days drive should not pass this one up. Tom is a very good instructor and host. The campus at Vassar and the surrounding area is really beautiful as well

Punong Guro Bolden is one of the best Arnisadors I have met and anyone who is interested in learning and seeing powerful, elegant, and effective Filipino Martial Arts should go to this camp.

Sincerely,

He doesn't really tote it around but he is a pretty well rounded martial artist outside of MA as well. TKD, Capeoria, Tai Chi, CHA-3 Kenpo, as well as a fellow/former USMC types as well (Yeah, had to throw that in). He moves like a cat and produces quality students of character and skill. Peter Vargas can be a scary man on the floor.

His palm strike is like a brick at the end of a rope. We didn't give him the nickname "Iron Palm Tom" for nothing..... He does a great job of linking the movement to the mechanical and the conceptual both. Bring a note book if you go, he really gives a lot to digest.
