Rapido Realismo Kali International (RRKI) Membership Program
Vision Statement
Personal Mastery and the Arts, Integrity, and Leadership.
The Rapido Realismo Kali International
Vision Statement holds multiple layers of meaning: Integrity
- The Rapido Realismo Kali members value integrity in character, integrity
in how we represent ourselves as well as integrity in how we preserve the
art of Kalis. Leadership
- We are here because we love the art and hope to represent it in a positive
light as well as glorify it through serving the community. In doing so, we
hope to positively impact the lives of others and lead through service and
sharing. Mastery
- "Back to Basics" or the focus on "Mastery" has been a theme of our
training philosophy from day one. Mastery implies working towards
perfection and is not only a quest to improve skill in Kali, but to master
oneself and thereby become a better person.
Membership will allow you to have more
representation and participation in the activities of the RRKI. By joining
the membership program you will be officially recognized as a member of the
RRKI and thereby ensure that you will receive the benefits of membership. In
addition, it will help the RRKI strengthen its resources and better
accomplish its objectives with your participation, support, contribution and
knowledge. Ultimately, as the RRKI strengthens, it will be in an even better
position to serve you.

upholding high standards and principles of integrity, leadership and
mastery. Membership means you are a representative of the RRKI and a member
of an organization that not only supports learning Kali, but also each
other.
Membership in the RRKI is open to all
individuals who are engaged in or intend to be engaged in learning Kali from
any instructor, school or event sponsored by the RRKI. This includes
attending any of the following: classes, private instruction, camps,
seminars, and the like. Membership is limited to those who are deemed by the
RRKI to be of sound mind and character and is extended as a privilege not a
right. Although the RRKI hopes to serve everyone interested, the RRKI
reserves the right to refuse anyone for any reason.

training environment, the RRKI requires that all applying members have a
reference. This reference is called a sponsor, and must be an instructor or
officer of the RRKI. However, sponsorship is easy to obtain. Either an
instructor or officer of the RRKI will invite you to join and thereby become
your sponsor, or you can simply ask about membership through email, by phone
or in person. Recommendations from RRKI members, friends and affiliates will
greatly help you obtain a sponsor.
