Very sad to hear about the passing of Great Grandmaster Rene Latosa, founder of Latosa Escrima (@rzlatosa), and legend of Filipino Martial Arts.
…
I started learning his no-nonsense Escrima system in 1999 when it was a part of the Leung Ting Wing Tsun organization. His approach is all about winning the encounter, plain and simple.
…
I was really looking forward to attending more of his workshops in Seattle, and hoped to bring him to Vancouver at some point. It was pretty sudden, as he’d only last posted on social media on May 29th.
…
Most sincere condolences to his family. It was way too soon, and we’ve really lost an excellent man, who had so much more to give, and so much more life to live.
