Hello from Wisconsin!
Hello all! I am a new shakuhachi player and am wondering if there are any teachers in my area? I live in Northwestern Wisconsin and I am just experimenting with it on my own. I was also wondering if i post a picture of it if anyone can tell me if it is a decent one or not... I bought it at a Renaissance Festival in my area. I will post a picture later! Thank you!

Hello Baku and welcome,
I can't help you with a teacher in your area, but it's always nice to look at take.

Re: Hello from Wisconsin!
Hey Baku,
I am from Wisconsin, but I live in Tasmania now. However I get back there periodically and sometimes teach a few lessons. Keep in touch.
Ciao,
