Tim Hartman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tim Hartman (b 1965) is a practitioner of the Filipino martial art of Modern Arnis and Balintawak, and the president of the World Modern Arnis Alliance (WMAA).
In 2000 he tested for his 6th degree black belt at the Michigan summer camp, making him the highest tested rank in the U.S. under Remy Presas, founder of Modern Arnis. He was granted the title Datu, or chieftain, by Presas shortly thereafter.
Mr. Hartman is very active on the seminar circuit, regularly giving seminars and camps across North America and Europe. In June 2005, Hartman was promoted to 9th degree by the WMAA Advisory Board. This promotion reflects Mr. Hartman's leadership position within the WMAA, and is not meant to replace the rank that he earned from Presas within the Modern Arnis community at large.
He resides and teaches in West Seneca, NY.
