It saddens me to inform everyone that George Mazek passed away a few days ago. George was the man responsible for bringing Modern Arnis to the Chicago area. He will be missed.

That is very sad news. He introduced me to Modern Arnis, my first martial art, when I was in high school in McHenry, Illinois. I met him through his student and my good friend Patrick Sanders, who is now in Boston. The speed, subtlity and painfulness of his joint locks taught me to be very sensitive and flexible ;)

He was tough as nails and did a good job at instilling Modern Arnis basics and concepts in my young mind.


I know he had not been well for a long time. Does anyone know of any memorial for him?





RIP Guro Mazek.
