I am a private individual, not a company, not a political organization, and not an agent of any government. I spent my first years in Mexico in the 1960s, later studied and lived in the United States, and have lived in other countries. I speak four languages. English is the working language of this project because it is the language I use to reach the widest group of families. That choice is practical. It is not a claim of nationality, sponsorship, or allegiance. The Ninja Kids Dojo is a free educational project for children. It is being prepared in several languages so families can use it in their own. The program is mine. I am not paid by a corporation to run it, and I do not speak for Washington, Brussels, Beijing, Moscow, or any other capital. I have a personal way of looking at life. It is mine. I will not use this project to convert anyone to it. Children are not a political audience. The dojo exists to teach skills, discipline, respect, and practice — not to recruit, brand, or campaign. Because the program is now appearing on official and public channels, scrutiny is expected. I welcome it. Ask who I am, who pays, what the lessons contain, and who can change them. The answers are: a person; the project is free; the materials are what we publish; I am responsible for them. Institutions I grew up respecting — schools, police, the idea of a lawful public square — still matter to me. So does the freedom to speak plainly. If something in this project is wrong, name it. If it is useful, use it. I am not a bot and I am not a front. I am one person offering a free program and accountable for it.
