Inspiring news! Congratulations Shihan Robin!
It always a pleasure to see young people striving to improve mankind and our society as a whole. Keep on being the mentor that you have been for all these years.
Congratulations to you sir.
Shihan Robin has been my inspiration to carry on in the field of Martial Arts. Congrats my fellow Martial Artist and fellow Dominican, much respect to you on your achievements!
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN SHIHAN Robin. I was at the tournament and witnessed first hand the spectacular performance of Shihan Robin in the three categories of weapons, kata( open forms) and point sparing. The spectators were especially blown away by the Bruce Lee-escque performance of his Point Sparring and the audacious and awesome fluency of his Kata. The double weapons of broad sword and nunchucks was uniquely executed with a precision that is now becoming the hallmark of Shihan Robin.
And he did it in the presence of Grand Champion Cynthia Rothrock who I finally met myself and other Professors of the atrial arts. So proud od Shihan Robin.
I got the opportunity to take a photo with him (in the second photo above on the extreme right)
Keep succeeding and making Dominica proud Shihan Robin
