WHO
IS
MARTIAL OCEANS INC. BEING AROUND?
On 2005, Martial Oceans International, a company dedicated
to promoting martial arts on the high seas was created by Anthony (Tony) Calvino and Rebecca (Becky) Greenough the owners.
Both
Tony and Becky realized that most martial artists spend weekends apart from their families participating in Tournaments, Seminars,
and or convention and wished that they could bring their loved ones along; or at least allow them to have some fun while the seminars
are going on and
not be bored to death in some out of town hotel room.
They realized that the concept of conventions on cruise
ships is not a new one and they wanted to come up with a better, more fun and educational way of doing a martial arts.
They
knew that most of the other schools or promoters doing them were either bringing instructors of only one discipline/style or they
were just doing conferences where the students were getting lectures and no physical training on the diverse arts, not to mention
doing tournaments; Becky and Tony wanted to change that.
NEW AND NEVER BEFORE SEEN EVENT,
and it will be called
“
The Tournament will be sanctioned by these sanctioning bodies…
“ACADAMY OF MASTERS
"ACTION MARTIAL ARTS HALL OF MASTERS"
"AJJIF"
"USA NATIONAL TRAINING CENTER OF COMBAT JU-JITSU / MMA"
"SHORNJIRYU NISEI BUDO-KAI KOSHIKI TRAINING CENTER”
"FIGHT ZONE MEDIA"
They will compete
on the high seas (International Waters). The winners of these events will be recorded on the Hall Of Fame records for future events.
Also this event will be considered DISNEY QUALIFYER EVENT.. The winners will be considered…
“INTERNATIONAL WATERS-WORLD CHAMPIONS” the "IWC" a new designation, due to the fact that they competed in international waters…
NO COUNTRIES… NO BORDERS… NO GOVERMENTS…
The
Master Instructors would teach seminars one or two days, they will be a part of a maximum of three seminars each day, one subject
each day, every two hours and they would only do it while at sea, allowing the martial artist the ability to participate in the events
and train with several Masters each day.
The events will happen from seven in the morning until about three or four in the afternoon
allowing the competitors students and the Masters time to spend with their family on the cruise ship enjoying it’s amenities, and
the ports we are planning to visit the rest of the time. Also school owners and Martial Arts Instructors would be able to get possible
tax breaks, and… get a free cruise by having their students join them (Tony and Becky would like them to consult their personal accountant
for the laws in their own country or state).
