Welcome to the Datu’s Tribe International Website!
We are the leading Extreme Filipino Martial Arts competition team consisting of multiple schools in the U.S., Canada and the Philippines. Our leader, Grand Master “Datu Tim” Hartman, is an international tournament champion, a tournament promoter, and a popular referee throughout the U.S., Canada, Scandinavia and England.
In the competitive arena we are competing in traditional forms, weapon forms, full contact sparring and stick sparring. We compete at local, national and international tournaments.
