As we're sure many of you will know Grandmaster Codner very recently lost his mother. For those of you who have trained with him for a while, you will know just how important his mother was and is to him. Often he will tell us how his mother gave him his training fee the first time he showed an interest in martial arts and simply told him "do it well." Though simple words, it was the making of Sir, and us, as Sir gained incredible knowledge and skills that he has been passing on to us as students for what feels like a lifetime.
With that in mind, we thought it would be good to collect some money for Sir, to give to him, to show that we as his students and former students are thinking of him and his family during this difficult time. This is also a common thing in some cultures, including Japan.
So with that being said we are asking only if you can, if you could donate some money to this cause no matter how large or small, where in the end we will gift this to Sir.
During this time, if anyone has any other suggestions for the money they can let us know. Though the reason we are thinking of money is so that it can help towards the funeral costs of his mother.
If there are any questions please feel free to reach out to Master Aska, Derek or David
Thanks
