I only get to train with my Sensei maybe 3-4 times a year, and sometimes six months or more go by before I see him. I stay in contact through the phone and Skype and such. But it seems like almost everytime I go to train, there's all new students, some techniques have changed slightly, and class structure has been revamped. Makes me feel like I'm going from a black to a white belt real fast. But it makes me feel humble, and reminds me that I'm as much (if not more) of a student than I am a teacher. Humility is a wonderful thing!

Hey everyone, My name is Andrew Kennedy from Ontario Canada. A little bit about me: started training in Yoshinkan Aikido about 14 years ago, had to stop training when my Sensei shut down his club. I then started training in Shogen Ryu Karate which I've been doing for about 10 years and just recently graded to my Nidan. Presently working with the Canadian Forces and I'm unfortunately posted to a base that has very little in the way of martial arts clubs in the area, so I've mostly been training on my own for the last couple years, except when I get home to train with my Sensei. Looking forward to getting to know as many of you as I can and swapping some ideas back and forth!
