Help Save the Life of Our Beloved Dojo Brother, Maurice Konkobo

At martial arts world, we are more than just students and instructors — we are a family. Today, we come to you not just as fighters, but as protectors, united in a mission that transcends the dojo walls.

One of our brightest and most dedicated students, Maurice Konkobo, is in the fight of his life. Maurice is not only a gifted martial artist — he is a loyal friend, a humble warrior, and an inspiration to everyone who’s had the honor of training alongside him. Always the first to lift others up, Maurice now needs us to stand by his side.

Maurice is currently facing a life-threatening illness and requires immediate medical treatment. The costs are overwhelming, and time is not on our side. We are rallying to raise $10,000 to help cover the expenses of his care — including treatments, visits, aid and the critical support needed to give him a fighting chance.

This is more than a fundraiser. This is a call to action. When one of us falls, we all rise to lift them. That is the code we live by.

Please consider donating whatever you can. Every contribution — no matter how small — is a strike of hope, a gesture of love, and a powerful message to Maurice: You are not alone. Your dojo family and martial arts community are with you — heart, soul, and spirit.

Let’s show Maurice the strength of our unity. Let’s give him the chance to fight — and win — this battle.
