When looking through Ohashi Sensei site (http://www001.upp.so-net.ne.jp/bujinkan/ which is very important) today I was pleasantly surprised to see that Doug Wilson Sensei had started a blog on Budo Taijutsu. Wilson Sensei is a long time Japanese resident and gives another perspective into this art. Having met him at the New Jersey Tai Kai (only briefly) and watching him perform I am sure that everyone will enjoy this blog. Here is the link: http://henka.wordpress.com/

Enjoy!

"It seems that many of the past politics have become less of a problem. I think that this is because people have matured and are more confident in their abilities and there is less of a feeling of need of competition between Shidoshi."

I find it very interesting that a Japan resident is able to come to this conclusion - at least if it's meant to be true also on an international level.

I think since Doug also travels and teaches seminars and I believe is a US resident that he is qualified to speak regarding his opinon regarding this.

In a way, that makes things even more interesting, partially given the difference between seminars and daily training.

Well I am sure that he has a perspective that he wishes to let other's know about and I for one am interested in what he has to say.

I have a feeling that the Japan residents hear a lot of chatter as people come and go. Particularly as some jockey for position.

That's cool! I used to train with him in San Diego when he taught as SDSU and over in Santee/Vista. He's really good, as are most products of Bill Atkins' training group.

Grey Eye Bandit are you dissing Doug Wilson? Because if you are then I thik you are truthfully missing out and I hope that is not the case.
