Starting in Yamanni ryu

[P.A.L]

for years I've been looking for a uechi-ryu school and a Yamanni-ryu teacher around Houston. I still can't find a Uechi-ryu practitioner in Houston but I finally found a Yamanni ryu teacher. He is part of Nishime Sensei organization and we gonna meet twice each month. He also got a none- tapered BO from sensei Nishime for me. I really like the BO handling of Yamanni ryu in comparison to other Bojutsu styles like Matayoshi or Matsumura.

Congrats on finding a dojo that fits your MA needs, and sorry to hear that you're not able to locate a Uechi-ryu dojo in Houston, TX. It's always nice to have a Bo bestowed upon you, especially when that someone's Nishime Sensei.

Train hard and train well!!

Thank you for sharing that video; he's one of the best across the board.

Interesting bo kata, very heavy on striking which would make a non-tapered bo the best choice I suppose.

Whoa! Snapped it in half! That was something! Do you suppose that had to do with the quality of the bo, or more to his power?
