Monkeymagic Posted May 23, 2004 Posted May 23, 2004 1st kyu - Seki Juku - training towards my black belt but leaving the country this summer so may not get a chance to take it. But at least i'll be good enough to do it by the time I leave. Shame really. It's all about learning to get there for me anyway, i've been lucky to get this far in a relatively short time but worked vary hard towards it. I am moving to China, so will be able to maybe pick something up there.

Killer Miller Posted May 26, 2004 Posted May 26, 2004 My signature tells my story. Although, I was two weeks from ny Nidan test when my hernia popped overhauling a transmission on a Toyota Land Cruiser... Hernia fixed a few years ago - all is good now. But too far for me to have to travel for good training and I don't teach anymore. Gave my Dojos to others, moved out of the area for awhile and they went bye bye in time. But all is ok. I play table tennis regularly at various clubs (been playing since I've been a kid, make custom blades that I ship all over the world, and expend almost as much energy as Karate). I also found a fellow classical guitarist friend that just happened to be a Sandan in Aikido. So I have a great time just training with him now - the training is not nearly as intense as Karate, but I really have a lot of fun doing it. - Killer Miller - Mizu No KokoroShodan - Nishiyama SenseiTable Tennis: http://www.jmblades.com/Auto Weblog: http://appliedauto.mypunbb.com/Auto Forum: http://appauto.wordpress.com/
