Save Cobans Muay Thai Camp in NYC
Donation protected
Coban's Muay Thai Camp is a local institution for those of us who do or did train with Coban. And, he's a living legend in the Muay Thai world from his fighting and coaching career. His experience is deep, his teaching is inspired, his ability to motivate will move you and the community he and Saundra have built is friendly and supportive. And, they've put everything they have into the Camp.
Friday May 1, 2020 they sent out an announcement they were permanently closed due to the overwhelming expenses they are facing and their decision to not charge membership dues while we can't train.
Many of us think we should chip it to preserve the Camp so he's still in NYC when this is over and we can get back to training.
Understanding that everyone is effected differently by this situation - particularly the economic impact many are experiencing, those who have the ability can help support Coban & Saundra by donating 1-2 months dues (or whatever you can) to keep them in NYC and in business.
And, if we fail at funding and enticing them to stay in NYC, at the very least they won't walk away with the financial burden with which they are currently saddled.
I can tell you on a personal note that Marco and I went to see them yesterday and they were pretty frustrated by their predicament.
