True Budo

True Budo is practiced not to

destroy an enemy, it must make him, or his own will, gladly lose his spirit (seishin) to oppose you.

Hey! The great oSensei

Morihei Ueshiba!
Bruce... Do you practice Aikido too?? :D:D

I studied in California for a year,

then moved to Japan where I studied from the crack of dawn in an unheated dojo for 3 hours every day including

weekends for the most part. John Stevens was my sensei and I finally got my nidan and teaching certificate before I

came back. I also studied with the legendary (4 times all-Japan full-contact karate champion) Osada Sensei nights

until I got married, and spent a month studying Muay Thai on an island in South Thailand.

wow dude! I admire

you!

I've been in Aikido for less than a year & I SOundestand why you did all that! :D
