MARI is implementing a "Black Belt" based structure for the Filipino portion of the MARI curriculum. The class structure will still include the Indonesian and Chinese programs traditionally offered at MARI but will now give the the student an opportunity in which to achieve Black Belt Status in the Filipino Martial Arts. While all other previous teaching credentials are still available to our students, full immersion in our curriculum (Filipino, Indonesian and Chinese) would still be necessary to gain "Teaching Certification" through MARI and our Grandmasters / Organizations.
