Welcoming words
I would like to thank you for checking out my website. Many of you may already know me from the project posted on youtube (http://youtube.com/JMHamilton1), myspace, facebook and twitter. Or the clothing line logo on (http://www.cafepress.com/JMHamilton1), or my first publication (PARTICIPATION by John Morgan Hamilton - Based on true events) available at both Barnes & Noble and Amazan.com. If you do then you know more about me than most. For those of you who are just hearing about me - welcome. For those of you who may desire to become a student in the future with White Falcon Dojo of PanAmerican Goju Ryu KarateDo Academy after it has opened, to you I also say welcome in advance. I will teach you new ways of thinking to achieve success in your life. As a servant of KarateDo, the Lord our God - Jesus Christ and as a retired sargeant from the United States Army, I pledge as your teacher and motivate and push you to reach your greatest potentials. To also inspire you not to be like me but to be better than me through the teaching of American Goju Ryu KarateDo. I will show you how to over come some of the many obstacles this world will place in front of you.
Here's a short story about me most people don‘t know. As a child I was picked on by other kids and in my teenage years people around me felt I would not do anything with my life, other than get involved in crime, drugs or end up in jail. I was a very poor reader with low grades all throughout my school days from elementary until graduating High school. Even with a supporting mother and father my future was still viewed as being very bleak. Statistically the odds were not in my favor but I did not let that stop me from reaching the many accomplishments in my life. I didn"t give up on my dreams or my goals in life and I feel that any child in America can do the same. If you are thinking or even feeling like giving up on your dreams and goals - "STOP, YOU CAN BECOME WHATEVER YOU WANT IN YOUR LIFE." Nothing is impossible or out of reach if you believe in “yourself” and the power of God almighty.
In today’s society a great deal of Dojo’s are affiliated with the teaching from the Bible, from KarateDo to Kung Fu and many other systems. We believe in teaching a complete martial arts systems because some people think KarateDo or martial arts as a whole was only created to hurt others. Those individuals do not understand the true meaning of KarateDo or any martial arts system. Martial arts was first a spiritual art and a way of life before it was ever a combative one. This is the bases of PanAmerican Goju Ryu KarateDo, it was like that many centuries ago when Karate was called “ti” or "te". We teach ways to comtrol anger, violence, peer-pressure, family issues, depression, low self-esteem, self-defense, anxiety, fitness and exercise, self-discipline, proper eating habits, behavior problems and more. Also within Pan American Goju Ryu KarateDo are strong military values becuse most of the teachers in this system have a Miltiary background. I strongly believe there should be no reason why any child in America should not have the opportunity of learning how to achieve their gaols. That is why I've created these programs in a place I consider to be my home.
In the military I always advised my soldiers two things, 1 - “Let no ones perception of you become your reality” and, 2 - “How bad do you want it”, soon to become published motivational books to help others. People will always have thier own perception of who they think you should be or who your going to become in life but the only perception of you that should matter is "yours" your own....... If there's something you want to achieve in life then the main question you must ask yourself is “How bad do you want it”. Again thank you for stopping by my website and I hope you enjoy the rest of the information on this page, Osu.

The name White Falcon was given to me in the year of 2009 in Webster New York while sitting in the park after praying and practicing Kata. The experience behind witnessing this great bird changed many things in my life. To always teach goodness though the lessons in KarateDo and look for nothing in return. The falcon is one of the most beautiful creators of the sky and its skills to survive in many climates has made it a very priced pet amount families of royalty in India, South East Asia and Sad Arabia. In the United States next the Eagle, hurting or killing the Falcon is illegal and a person can receive high penalties and fines for doing so. When one species of the falcon is burn they are completely white in color and as they age, the white is replaced with darker colors. Those falcon that remain mostly white are consider to be birds of pure royalty and touched by the hand of God or Allah.
The word Baaj is sanskrit in origin and mostly it is agreed that it refers to a falcon as opposed to a hawk or an osprey. The peregrine falcon first springs to mind but one would not describe it as predominantly white. If the historical anecdotes are to be believed then it is most likely that the 'white bird of prey' which the 10th Guru handled was either a Gyrfalcon or Saker Falcon.
The Gryfalcon is the only 'regularly white falcon' that exists, it's also the largest of the falcons and would have been a very prized possession during the seventeenth century especially in Asia. Futher south Falcon are darker in color as well as smaller in size. The Gryfalcon wingspan can be as big as 63" (160cm) and it's weight can be up to 4.6 lb (2.1kg). That makes it a very impressive and very powerful bird. It's food or pray can rang from Arctic Ptarmigan, sea and water birds, and from time to time large ducks or geese. The Gryfalcon is one of the few bird that can take its pray in "mid air flight" but it is known to catch from air to ground. It can reach speeds of 50 mpr in a dive which make it close to impossible to see until the last momnet.

II corinthians 6:4-10
PanAmerican Goju Ryu KarateDo is one of a many forms of martial arts growing in the United States today that teaches both the spiritual and physical enlightenment within its teachings. Within these systems I cannot and will not try to claim as my own because they were created before my very existence. God has given us all the ability to understand the human body and parts of the human brain. Through the teachings of KarateDo and our heavenly father I can only lead you to that understanding like so many other teachers, help you make sense of the lessons you learn but it is up to you to take the first step. It is up to you to apply them to your life and it is up to you to want more out of life. Like the name of the Dojo (White Falcon), the purest bird remains mostly white in color when it becomes an adult bird. We to are pure at birth and as life goes on, we pick up spots along the way. Only through the teachings of the purest KarateDo and our heavenly father we are made pure once again, with the fewest of spots because we will always have a human nature. As martial artist walking in the way of the Lord we must stand in the eyes for others to see that God loves us all. With great understanding comes great responsibility to those around us we serve.
