The Era Krew The History

In Aug. 2004

Originally started out into two separate groups.

John Nabong and Jeff Salmon was part of an Escrima

group that did shows usually in school rallies. The most

well known place that they preformed was at the local Stockton

Filipino Barrio. Jimmy Y and Jaime Y were the two twin boys

who did a show at the Stockton barrio and Jeff was amazed by their

high kicking and flashy techniques. He had recognized the twins at

their high school Lincoln in Stockton. Jeff had mentioned to the twins

how dazzled he was with their performance and convinced the two to join

their escrima group. The escrima group was called "Come what May," the group

was strictly escrima stick fight scenes and had the twins do a little bit

of flashy kicks. The group was great and practice everyday at school during lunch.

The Show in March was the first time the two groups had combined and preformed.

The Downfall & United

Some of the members had personal issues and unhappy with the way the group

was handling it. So which left Jimmy, Jaime, John, and Jeff. Jimmy and Jaime

had a disagreement with their local martial arts school with their school. Jaime

unsatisfied had decided to take a break and had a chat with John. Jaime had decided

to start a real martial arts tricks/escrima/ and mixed group. The idea was somewhat new

to the group. The team had started to recruit more people and Jaime had invited David Victorino

who is a long time good buddy who had a break from a martial arts school as well.

John, Jeff, Jimmy,David, Tristan, Jimmy, Jourdan had decided to call the team at the time "TEAM UNTOUCHABLES" really it was Tristan idea.

We later changed it to T.E.K which stood out for "The Era Krew."
