I won't list all the instructors, but I have also studied each of the following for at least a few months (not just once or at a seminar). I hold low ranks in many of them:

Judo, Aikido, Capoeira, Kendo, Fencing, Kyusho, Qigong, Tai Chi, 5 styles of Jujitsu/Jiujitsu.

I have also been to countless seminars with countless big name instructors, but I don't count that for much except continuing to broaden my horizons.
