My name is Thomas Valdez Jr. I am 8 years old. I have been studying American Freestyle Karate for 2 1/2 years at the Dragon Dojo in Pueblo,CO. I recently promoted to purple belt. I am under the direction of Sensei Phil Salazar and Sensei Carlos Salazar. I was recently awarded State Champion in 5-8 year old musical division and 3rd place in contemporary weapons. I will be competing in the USA World Karate Championships in Las Vegas, NV in June of this year. I am seeking donations to help fund my trip. The above video is of my kata I used to win my titles.
