OUR TEAM

Isaiah Jeremiah Delarmente

Vice President - Technical

He used to be obese during his teenage years. He exhibited his interest in ﬁtness when he became determined to lose weight and be healthy. He managed to have a healthy and active lifestyle when he discovered his interest for jump rope. It became his staple cardio exercise and he began to develop a passion for it. He wanted to share this great change and experience to others and this led him to making jump rope a platform for ministry in reaching out to the youth. Currently, IJ is a healthcare worker, sharing his advocacy on ﬁtness and health through jumprope.

Erwin Jeremy Ng

Vice President - Events

Erwin was admittedly not your boy next door kind of guy. He loves to eat in chunks, has a sweet tooth and had always been overweight. He recalls a couple of humiliating stories during his heaviest, when he weighed 210 pounds. Erwin’s lowest point became his breakthrough moment towards a healthier lifestyle. Fitness wasn’t natural to him. It took him discipline and consistency to further the enthusiasm about it. Now, he is known as the man behind Jump Manila trying to inﬂuence people that being ﬁt could be fun too through skipping ropes and adding twists with tricks and dance steps to the routines. He tries to include everyone in the community most especially beginners, for he believes that good company can be the strongest support in one’s ﬁtness journey.

Arrion Zachary Marañon

Auditor

Zach is a ﬁtness enthusiast that has experience in competitive swimming and triathlons. After leaving the swimming and triathlon scene, his weight ﬂuctuated up and down as he sporadically would visit the gym to keep in shape. In 2019, Zach found jumprope as a ﬁtness activity that really brought joy and fun to his workouts and because of this, he has become consistent with maintaining his weight, health, and ﬁtness at a level that he is satisﬁed with. He aims to continue growing by learning new jumprope moves and increasing cardiovascular health with these workouts.

Alberto Agra

Trustee-at-Large

At 57, his ﬁtness journey has reached another milestone. From the time he became ﬁt when he turned 50 after losing 70 lbs, he has taken up running, he continues to seriously train, he actively competes in obstacle sports, and he restarted his javelin throwing. Now, he is into another wellness activity - jump rope. He strives to learn, unlearn and relearn.

Mark Joseph Casidsid

Chair, Para-Jump Rope Committee

Aga is a blind obstacle sports national athlete, ultramarathoner, road and trail runner, and jump rope enthusiast. His passion for sports gave him a new perspective in life despite losing his sight. Being surrounded with so many people who inspires him to be better, he works hard and aims to also be the same for others, through sports.

Noel Antonio Agra

President

Chef/Certiﬁed Jumprope and OCR Coach

He started his jumprope journey when he was working as a chef. He wanted to lose weight while working a 12-14 hour shift and decided to include jumprope as part of his lifestyle. After losing 50 pounds, he wanted to share his life changing experience by obtaining jumprope certiﬁcations, by coaching individuals in different gym facilities, and by holding jumprope events to increase the awareness for jumprope as a lifestyle. Reﬁning one’s self through constant practice in jumprope, in sports and especially in life, is his motive for what he wants to attain.

Jess has always integrated jump rope as a part of her cross training for tennis. She now manages their family business, but her passion for health and ﬁtness has remained strong.
