Mike Sanders


One of my first, and certainly one of my best, teachers was Mike Sanders of Sterling, Illinois. Over the 4th of July weekend a memorial for him was held by remaining students and practitioners of his art, which was called Bujin Kenpo. As one of my newer students pointed out, it's quite something for someone to be remembered 30 years after their passing, especially by those not in his family.

Nelson Kari coordinated it and thanked me for being there in spirit by my sending a video tribute since I had committed to be in Austria that weekend. I will post photos of the memorial when I get them.
