It's going to be a pretty concentrated martial arts season around here.
Next Saturday I'm off to watch part of the Canadian Karate Championship. Top notch competition.
Then I'm starting a new Karate club up on at the very end of March.
In the middle of May I start the month-long process of testing for a Jiu-Jitsu Blue Belt.
At the end of May I will be attending a seminar given by Sakurai Sensei and Oishi Sensei. Sakurai Sensei is by far the best instructor I've ever seen, and Oishi Sensei is the just-retired head of the most successful University Karate program ever.
Once summer hits, my Karate club will be shutting down for a bit, and I will be rarely able to train in Jiu-Jitsu. I will be able to train with the University of Victoria Karate Club and with the Victoria Judo Club quite a bit.
...and I get to go on a cruise.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
