I was first taught by you in a UK event nearly 20 years ago. Even though you were one of the main speakers on the day, you tried to greet everyone at the door entering the event. This taught me humility. Over the years at the MAIA events you would always say hello. You are such an inspiring instructor, human being. Thank you Sir.

Great Grand Master Reyes, I'm so glad that I have had the opportunity to learn from you since I began my first black belt training cycle in 1998. The lessons of pursuing mastery in every aspect of life have influenced not only my martial arts, but my friendships, my marriage, my work, and my faith. Now as I serve underprivileged communities along the western US through The Salvation Army, I take those many lessons and life skills with me and pass on the Martial Arts spirit that you taught me. Not only when I teach a low-income community martial arts class or women's self defense seminar, or train jiujitsu, but in every interaction with state officials or unhoused families. Thank you for your example and legasy.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! GGM Ernie Reyes,
It is with great Honor to call you my GGM. You have taught us to rise up and level up of what we have learn from all your teachings. GGM Reyes you have the biggest heart and always show unconditional love to everyone. Having you as one of the founders of our WCWMA association, you have brought us positive energy to everyone in our association.
GGM Reyes, without having this great WCWMA association, no telling how I would be physically, mentally and spiritually. When I was down because of obstacles of what I was going through, you called me and help me on being by my side and be the Rock you would say, “hold myself up in order to do what I need to do for myself and my family”.
You are an inspiration to us all.
I like to say, it is a great Honor to be one of your student, instructors, and staff member. One Team! One Family! One Spirit and One Love! SPOM!!
