I joined Thousand Waves in Chicago because I wanted to start up my martial arts training again. Out of all the dojos that I could have gone to, Thousand Waves stood out to net because of its focus on female empowerment and community outreach. This place has made me feel strong and more confident. It's started to give me tools that I can use to protect myself if I ever come into harm's way. It has also provided me with such an encouraging and supportive community while I train.Please help me to support their missions!! More information below. :)
Thousand Waves is a mission-driven not-for-profit in the city of Chicago that has been active in the community for over 33 years with a mission to foster fitness, healing, empowerment, and peacemaking.
Our Spirit Challenge Fundraiser supports Thousand Waves' work in three critical areas:
- Scholarship program, which provides funding for children and adults who wouldn't otherwise be able to study karate or self-defense.
- Adapted Seido Karate program (ASK), which provides karate for youth with disabilities.
- Self-Defense/Violence Prevention program, which provides Self-defense and Bystander Intervention workshops and courses all over the city.
Thousand Waves was named based on the Japanese saying, "One wave sets thousands in motion." Thank you for helping us make waves!
