May 5th marks the anniversary of the birth of Leopoldo T. Gaje, Jr. – the leader and grandmaster of the Pekiti-Tirsia System of Kali that was founded in 1897.
We’d like to express our deep appreciation for the decades GT Gaje has spent developing, teaching, and promoting the most traditional and advanced of modern arts of warfare and close combat. He has continually shared with all a precious part of Filipino culture.
Here is a link to a Youtube video of Grand Tuhon Leo T. Gaje Jr. on the History of Pekiti-Tirsia Kali.
You can find more information of Grand Tuhon Gaje on his bio page.
Happy Birthday Grand Tuhon!
