Gilbert Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 I've been studying more and more on aikido every day. But i had promised myself when i was younger that someday i would move to japan to study more there. Even the most powerful human being has a limited sphere of strength. Draw him outside of that sphere and into your own, and his strength will dissipate.
aefibird Posted January 21, 2005 Posted January 21, 2005 I have a dream of a long trip that I'd like to take... but I'm not planning on going on one anytime soon. Got no £££! In my dream trip, I'd fly to the USA and Canada and visit friends that I have there, then move on from there to the south Pacific and work my way around the Pacific rim (much in the manner of Michael Palin in his travel documentary). Then I'd go back to Africa and visit friends and family in Tanzania, Ghana, Kenya and Zambia. I'd also like to go diving in the Red Sea and spend a few weeks just chillin' in Zanzibar. Finally, I'd fulfil a training ambition and go to Japan to train in Aikido and Karate and China to train in Wing Chun and Taiji. Anyone wanna lend me some cash so I can go? In reality, I'm planning on visiting the east coast of the USA sometime in 2005, but I have no definate plans yet. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."

battousai16 Posted January 22, 2005 Posted January 22, 2005 hey, give me your address and i'll happily give you the change on the bottom of my car. that's 11 cents easy... who knows, i might have a quarter down there!... but i'd probably keep it, not gonna' lie. at any rate, have fun getting pummeled with american history while you're in the east coast. by the time your done you'll never want to hear about the stamp act or benjamin franklin again "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai

1kickKO Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 Well for a huge karate/jujitsu competition I am heading to Rome and Ireland for 10 days with Team America to compete for the 9th Irish Cup in June. We'll be spending half the time in Rome seeing the sights and vacationing, then the next half of the trip in Ireland seeing the sights then to compete.

ovine king Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 if you're after wing chun training, I'd say you're better off going to hong kong, especially if you're from one of yip man's students' lines. yip man's old school is currently being used by a lot of his old students as a base and they all seem to teach from there as well. believe it or not, this place is even noted in the time out hong kong city guide so have a look the nest time you're in Waterstones. The major Hung kuen school is alos only ten minutes from Yip Man's wing chun school class and it might be worth going for a visit as well. back to wing chun, here are another two major schools in china, namely yuen kay shan and pan nam but i don't think they have many schools outside of their own areas. as for my own little dream trip.... right now, that one involves a mountain or twenty...... it's not somewhere i want to go but more like something I want to do. earth is the asylum of the universe where the inmates have taken over.don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers.
senna_trem Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 My family is planning on taking a 2 week trip over to Saskatoon and back from where we live. That's the west coast of Canada to the middle-to west part of Canada for all you non-Canadians. "I think therefore I am" Rene Descartes
