The Lapunti UP group has been thriving and growing over the last several years, and for 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, we have several updates.
Lapunti UP conducted testing and promotions in December 2024 and March 2025 for several members. The following were successfully promoted to their respective ranks:
December Promotions:
Jerico Lagdameo and Joaquin Kyle Saavedra were promoted to Likha
Gwyneth Sean Caturay, Joseph Balburias and Ronan Koda Padilla were promoted to Luntian
February - March Promotions:
Ace Yorobe, Josef Yorobe, Daniel Wong and Joseph Balburias were promoted to Likha
Charisse Mari Fonacier was promoted to Luntian
Last February, we also welcomed our newest member, Regina de Vera.
Currently, those who are eligible for promotions may approach our masters and instructors to schedule their promotions, and in preparation for them, weekday sessions may also be requested depending on availability. For now, congratulations to everyone who passed their examinations, and to all our members, padayon!
