In 2000, he tested for his 6th degree black belt and Datu at the Michigan summer camp, making him the highest tested rank in the U.S. under Remy Presas, founder of modern arnis.

Hartman gives seminars and camps across North America and Europe. In June 2005, Hartman was promoted to 9th degree by the WMAA Advisory Board. This promotion reflected his leadership position within the WMAA, and was not meant to replace the rank that he earned from Presas.

His most recognized success in tournament fighting is in stick fighting, where competitors compete against one another sparring with two padded sticks to score points. He is also a notable practitioner in kata, specifically Filipeno kata, which is the event for which he currently holds the world title.

On April 23, 2007, Hartman was promoted to 9th degree in Kombatan and awarded the Grandmaster title by Presas.
