2 Newsletter - May Grappling News The ZenQuest grappling team has been hitting some recent tournaments and taking home some hardware! On Saturday, April 23 Chris Kupernik and Brennon Stockton competed in the Tap Cancer Out BJJ Open Charity tournament. Both placed 2nd and took home silver in their respective divisions. The event, known for being fairly competitive, drew over 460 grapplers. Brennon and Chris helped the event raise well over $100,000 for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. On Saturday, May 7 six members of Team Z competed in the NAGA East Coast Championships in Providence, Rhode Island. Stepping on the mat were Taryn Martin, Karyn Bienia, Chris Brouse, Matt Bienia, Neil Von Flatern and Tim Somerville. All of the competitors showed technique, strategy, and tremendous heart in their matches. Several of them came home with medals in their respective divisions, including: Taryn Martin - 2nd Place Women's Novice No-Gi, Karyn Bienia - 3rd Place Women's Beginner No-Gi, Chris Brouse - 1st Place Men's Beginner No-Gi and 3rd Place Men's White Belt Gi, Neil Von Flatern - 3rd Place Men's Blue Belt Gi, and Tim Somervile - 2nd Place Men's Expert No-Gi and 2nd Place Men's Purple Belt Gi. Congratulations to all of the competitors and thanks to everyone who came out to support the team! Tokkun Moved Despite the interest and excitement shown for a second Tokkun Karate camp, it will now be postponed until August of The primary reasons for this are calendar conflicts including the Obon Festival and the Okinawan Karatedo Association tournament in Okinawa, and another training camp in England scheduled for September. Based on talks with Okinawan Seniors, we will now begin planning on next year. The original Tokkun camp took place in 2005 and featured a week of training with four senior Okinawan Masters. The event drew a healthy group of students and instructors from around the U.S. Like the 2005 camp, next installment of Tokkun, or special training, will included clinics on Kata, Bunkai, Kumite, and conditioning. The current plan is to have Tokkun II will also feature instruction on joint locks, pressure points and escape techniques from the visiting masters. More information will be shared when it becomes available. Thanks for your interest and support. Demian Updates Demian Maia is returning to the octagon again on Saturday, May 14 in his pursuit of a shot at the UFC Welterweight title. ZenQuest s Jiu-jitsu Guru will be facing Matt Brown, a veteran fighter currently ranked 7th in the welterweight division, while Maia is placed at 6th. The Immortal Brown is known for his striking, conditioning and tenacity with a record of Demian is, of course, dominant with perhaps the best Jiu-jitsu in MMA, and is currently This looks to be a classic striker vs. grappler match-up. A win for Demian should give him a shot at the Welter-weight title. On Tuesday, May 3rd Demian was promoted to his 5th degree black belt (4 stripes) in Jiu-jitsu. Given his accomplishments in competitive Jiu-jitsu, in Mixed Martial Arts, AND as a critically acclaimed instructor...this is completely appropriate. Congratulations to Demian and the entire DMJJ association! Also, Demian s new website is now up, and features a nice page on ZenQuest! Check out demianmaia.com when you have a chance.
