Need to find BJJ/grappling schools in the Philippines

[jmcorro]

I'm going on vacation to the Philippines next month for a week and a half. I'll be in both Manilla (Marriot I think) and Cebu (Plantation Bay). I was looking for schools to visit (and hopefully do some no-gi rolling at) in both locations. Since I'm out of the US, I won't have any insurance so I'm particularly concerned about minimizing the risk of injury. I don't want to roll at a place where everyone is a badass (e.g. they won't think twice about cranking your arm that little bit extra just to show you who's in charge).

I did a search and saw a school at the bjjphilippines website. But that was it. Can anyone make any recommendations? Thanks!
