    Hello. Ive been saving money because it is my dream to travel to Japan to learn the language, and especially train in Jiu-jitsu and karate. Im also interested in studying calligraphy and looking into the sword arts. I already know I need a cultural visa. But what i need help with is finding a dojo to train in. I dont think I can obtain a cultural visa unless i have proof im training in a dojo. I also know when I go there I can automatically recieve a temporary visa valid for 90 days. While I have that I could search for a dojo then turn my temp visa into a cultural visa. But maybe itd be easier if I knew before hand where I could train and contact the instructors beforehand. Any ideas or sugesstion on how to do this?

    thats the problem, Im only thinking of long term conditioning. But maybe Im overlooking some very minor basics that should be paid more attention too, meanwhile still working on the conditioning ive been doing.

    Hello. Im just wondering, obviously i know it takes years of practice to perfect the amount of power (hitting power) yoou may possess. but im wondering, without any training involved what tips would you give a person that they could use right now to generate more power? im talking stances hip rotation etc. Also what kind of excersises would you suggest for the long term on being able to generate more power? ive heard of walking up the stairs to strengthen your kua. also the "Fu hu Gong" or lying tiger skill" described in this link: http://www.fightingarts.com/forums/ubb/Forum7/HTML/000198.html any excersises anyone has to offer like this, internal excersises? Thanks for the help
