Grandmaster Graduation

Hi, my name is Bernd Hartmann. Born in East Germany I learned mixed Martial Arts hidden from the Government as it was forbidden. I loved the training & Philosophie behind it. I started to compete and became famous. I always trained and graduated. The highest black belt is in our style the 8th degree Grandmaster. From the 5th to 6th is a waiting time of 10 years and so 6th/7th and 7th/8th. On February 29th, 2024 I passed everything to receive my Grandmaster title in an international Ceremony in Berlin 08/30/2024 with Guests from around the world.

The year 2023 ended in a bad way. First my Insurance went already up $500 in month for economy reason. 12/23 a lightning hit my AC unit, traveled into my house started a fire with damaging my roof. I used every single dollar to pay the repair by myself because the insurance would go crazy high. A car accident 12/07/23, as I was hit from behind added my bad luck. Still today no money yet even with lawyer.

I need to travel to Germany, will miss work and have to pay.

44 years practice Martial Arts train and fought world wide, being always there for my students and other black belts. I was ashamed to ask, but need one more time sponsors. Thank you so much Shihan Bernd Hartmann
