USSD Students & Family,

Excitement over next year's USSD Tour of Japan is growing, with registration exceeding expectations!

We're constantly adding to this amazing trip. In the last week, here are a few things we've added:

1) Martial Arts Training! We're zeroing in on which amazing training options we will include. In addition to the museums in the itinerary, there will be "hands on" opportunities. As you'd guess, with a group this big, the specifics take time to plan, but it's not a matter of "if" but rather "which ones".

2) The option to arrive in Tokyo earlier, or to stay in Kyoto later. When you sign up, just let me know your extra plans. You are responsible for costs associated with extra days, and any difference in airfare, but I am happy to help coordinate your plans (ex: Disney, golfing, etc.).

3) Confirmed vegan/vegetarian options, and accommodations for other dietary needs.

The best/most direct flights are based on the order of the first payment made (we WILL sell out planes). You can sign up via check (payable to Shaolin Productions, mailed to 4429 1st Street, Livermore, CA 94551) PayPal at [email protected] or sign up at https://ussd.com/events page/

Options:
1 payment of $4,995
2 payments of $2,575
3 payments of $1,750
5 payments of $1,100
7 payments of $800
