I would like to give you a little history on a man that saw an opportunity in 1993 to pursue a dream of having a 24/7 television network dedicated to the martial arts and its practitioners. He named this network, TMAN, “The Martial Arts Network”. In an all out effort, Master Tramontano began to take steps that created an idea and dream that has been on the lips of every martial artist for the last 18 years. The Martial Arts Network, a network for us, for martial artists. Imagine now, how great this would be. Master Tramontano quickly looked to the technology of our time, in late 1994, and along with Dr. Ron Valli, created the first ever website for Martial Arts. This website went on to support the television network project in every way. Tman.com, grew every day as it achieved over a million hits a month. In 1996, Master Tramontano along with partner, student and long time friend, Mr. Tony Interdonato, moved the television network from Boca Raton, Florida to Universal Studio in Orlando. For seven long years, Tramontano and Interdonato work trying to fit many of the pieces together that would ultimately grow a family oriented television network, dedicated to the martial arts community. Master Tramontano’s vision was a simple one; he wanted to create a television network that would reinforce family values, a place where every parents would feel comfortable having their children in front of a television knowing the right messages were being taught. In a continuing effort to give back to a community Master Tramontano loves and feels has given him so much, he now present TVMAC, The Virtual Martial Arts Competition. Ladies and Gentlemen, please help me welcoming The Virtual Martial Arts Competition.
