About Me

I am a grateful student of Sensei John R. Spence. i use to be a heavy drinker, smoker and pot smoker. i was a wild child at an old age.. didnt care about much or anything. could careless if i lived to see another day and am grateful i didnt kill anyone or myself in those moments of grand stupidity.. then oneday, i was introduced to Shorinryu karate.. it took awhile for me to realize there is more to karate than kicking someones butt.. a spiritual level, if you "get it" your whole life can change. oneday at a time.. baby steps and trying really hard to take the road less traveled and the one my God would like me to journey down. it hasnt been easy, but i am not complaining.

My Interests

Traditional Okinawa karate, weapons, grappling and The Code of Bushido. Classical music, kubuki and opera. i love surrealism. my roomie would tell you that i am very cultured considering my socio-economic upbringing. dont know if that is a compliment or a digg:) i enjoy the outdoors and cooking for my friends. i believe in putting others first and random acts of kindness. striving to be a better person than what i was the day before. i also am a grateful student of Master teacher Shizuko Dower. she has been teaching the Japanese ancient art of Mukimono for over 50 years. The Enshu school of Ikebana Isshin Kai. the art of japanese flower arrangement. Brought to you by the samurai. why? Because they led such an intense life that it is believed that flower arrangement would bring them back down to earth in a zen meditation like "mode" for a lack of better words..
