Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

My name is Amadiel, I’m a martial arts instructor from Mexico, and I’m thrilled to share something very important to me: I’ve been given the opportunity to travel to Japan, the birthplace of Karate, to deepen my knowledge, refine my skills, and immerse myself in the philosophy of Shito Ryu Karate.

Why Japan?
As someone who has dedicated years to training, teaching, and sharing the art of Karate, visiting Japan is more than just a dream—it’s a meaningful step in my journey. Japan is the cultural and spiritual home of Karate, and by learning directly from masters and experiencing its traditions firsthand, I will bring back invaluable teachings to share with my community.

What This Trip Means to Me:
A chance to learn advanced techniques and traditional values directly from Karate's roots.
A way to honor and deepen my connection to this beautiful martial art, which has shaped who I am.
An opportunity to become a better mentor and teacher, able to inspire others through authentic knowledge.
How You Can Help:
To make this journey possible, I’m raising $6857.59 USD, which will go toward:

Travel expenses (flights, accommodations, insurance)
Training fees and seminar costs in Japan
Visa and necessary documentation
Any amount helps, and your support—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this campaign—means the world to me.

Why Your Support Matters:
This is more than a trip. It’s a chance to bring ancient wisdom back home, to empower the next generation of martial artists, and to continue building a legacy rooted in discipline, respect, and perseverance.

I'll be sharing updates, photos, and videos along the way so you can be part of this exciting journey with me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me make this lifelong dream come true.
Arigatou gozaimasu!
