We do this through the art of focusing on the connection of mind, body, and spirit, as well as creating a positive safe community that is focused on helping others achieve their goals to success. The Kaizen Edge Foundation was created to empower, mentor, and develop people with developmental and physical disabilities along with the people who live and work with them. "Kaizen" is a Japanese word that means "continual improvement." We provide the opportunity for personal development to individuals who may not normally have access to these services due to disability. We provide an opportunity to allow everyone to develop physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually through martial arts, fitness, and life skills training. Our main focus is working with those who have disabilities and our youth volunteers who work alongside them. The Kaizen Edge Foundation continued its mission in three main areas: Adapted Martial Arts: Our adaptive martial arts and fitness methods are integrated therapeutically to help support current therapies such as PT, OT, ST, and ABA therapies in a single recreational modality. Our personalized adaptation for each student and our peer-to-peer mentorship are what make our program successful. Our students have the opportunity to compete at state and national level tournaments. Job and Life Skills: Kaizen Edge Foundation is dedicated to supporting and empowering those who need a little help and guidance to succeed in everyday tasks that many take for granted. Our job and life skills training is used to develop mental, physical, and social capabilities in a holistic environment and provide a sense of independence and achievement. Our goal is to come up with creative and innovative solutions to help develop future skills and goals. Our training includes product development, marketing, social skills, hygiene awareness, money management, and much more. Youth Enrichment Volunteers: Youth volunteers 13 and up are the adaptive martial arts coaches. This peer-to-peer mentorship allows our special needs students to be kids and have fun while learning. Our goal is the help nurture the next generation of leaders. Our youth volunteers learn how to overcome any personal blocks as they take the step into leadership roles. Our volunteers also get opportunities to get certified in CPR/First Aid and enroll in our Entrepreneur Program. 0 57567 57567 Micheal Hanson President 20 0 Jessica Fraley Secretary 20 0 Charles Cosnowski Treasurer 5 0 Mikel Fraley Executive Director 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 TX Charles Cosnowski 12415 Bandera Rd Ste 116 Helotes TX 78023 2109002417 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 0 0 12422 12428 24850 0 0 0 47957 46188 94145 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 60379 58616 118995 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 118995 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 60379 58616 118995 1 1 0 0 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Donation to Junior Achievement of South Texas Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Cancelled Check Fee;24|Volunteer Appreciation Expenses;398^Total;422^
