As we said earlier, Namido Martial Arts Yudanshakai is a Christian organization that seeks to serve all martial artist and denominations. We have in the past, given free membership to new Yudanshakai members but, as we have grown in membership, and gone international, our organization requires funds to further grow our association. Our goal is to preach the gospel to as many people as we can worldwide. We are going to Trinidad this summer to work with over 500 students and minister to them. Last time when Shihan Frazier went to Trinidad, he testified in front of the news camera to over 2 million households. We don't have to tell you that airplane tickets and accomodations cost alot of money. The only way we can come up with the funds to pay for these mission trips, is to rely on our current members and new members for support. Our organization is non-profit and every dime goes into a fund to give back to the ministry 100%. We have decided to charge a fee for membership, rank recognition, School charters, and rank promotions. We are also putting together at least two seminars per year and we are currently filming tapes and DVDs to offer over the website, through our learn by video program, which will be coming soon. We are also available to our current members for seminars in various martial arts. Please help us to raise the money to spread the gospel!
