Help Sensei Athena Get to Japan

My name is Nickey and I am the proud mom of 3 kids. Athena is my oldest, age 14. By making a donation, you will bring Athena one step closer to her dream of participating in Martial Arts training in Japan.

For close to 6 years, Athena has been training and just several months ago, she earned her Shodan in Ninpo Taijutsu and Shodan in Japanese Jujutsu and is still continuing her training. Not only is Athena a student at Empire Dojo under her mentors Luis Martinez Sensei and Sydney Brackins Sensei, but she is also a youth instructor herself. This is an excellent educational and training opportunity for someone so young that is already so committed to the art. Japanese Martial Arts is such a passion of hers and this rare opportunity for training is coming up very quickly.

Every donation counts, no matter the amount. Athena and I thank you in advance for your support!

Money raised will go towards flights, lodging (room & board), transportation, and testing, and food.
