    In addition to his long heritage of Kali under the respected name of Tortal, Grand Master Nene, treats Kali as a Combat Art.  He is the President of the Arnis (Kali) Martial Arts Federation and he has inspired many students of Kali, including the Late Master Edgar Sulite.   Master Jerson 'Nene' Tortal is signatory to many well known masters and grand masters in Kali, Arnis, Eskrima from Cebu, Manila and Bacolod.  He is the ranking family member and chief instructor for the Tortal Family.

    Foremost, a student since age 7 of his grandfather and great uncles, with over 53 years of practice and practical application, he is the single most responsible individual for training the Philippine Military.

    The Tortal family's proven methods where highlighted during WW2.  The late Edgar Sulite  spoke highly of the masters from Occidental Negros in his book, "Masters of Kali".  Grand Master 'Nene' Tortal is one of many unique masters from Occidental Negros, but his delightful method of teaching is refreshing.  His approach and genuine human interest makes learning this very difficult art, easy and enjoyable while getting a practical workout.

    He is serious business, having trained over 4,000 ROTC Cadets, Philippine Military Specialists, Police, Constabulary, special service protection teams, among a wealth of students, including judges, priests, men women and children from every walk of life.  Grand Master Nene often quotes, 'speed', and one technique results in* 'is surviving, correct, correct.  One technique, understood fully and you have a technique warehouse.
