Africa Trip

Hello everyone,

I have recently returned from a 3 week trip to Nigeria where I was initiated as an Awo (priest) in the African Traditional religion of IFA. My initiation was overseen by the Araba of Gbaguraland and my Oluwo Baba Ifayemi. I have long held the belief that the practice of the martial arts eventually takes one into the study and practice of spiritual sciences. With this initiation I will be providing spiritual counseling and readings to interested individuals in time.
Here are a few pictures of my trip, I will post more as I have the time.

  • Welcome!


  • Mandala Mandirigma is a balanced, three-dimensional martial science inspired from the fighting traditions of the Philippines and Indonesia. While stemming from the individual nations, Mandala Mandirigma was conceptualized in the United States. A student of our system will experience training in weapons, stand-up fighting, ground grappling, healing arts and much more.

    With over 25 years of practice and experience Professor Jordan has developed an evolved martial art practice that is challenging and rewarding to learn. Mandala Mandirigma stems from and teaches arts such as Majapai Derobio, KunTao, Arnis 63 Generals, Sikaran, Silat, BaGua and self-healing, while still expressing a unique distinction from the parent arts.

    Mandala Mandirigma has received official sanctioning and recognition, awarding Professor Jordan with the title of Punong Guro/Founder, at a comparatively young age, bringing a fresh new approach to an ancient art.
