Mujitsu and Tairaku's Shakuhachi BBQ

I was a full time professional magician, had been for 27 years. Also part time writer of short stories and plays, oh and yes I was also keen blues guitarist, fingerpicking and bottleneck. The 6 years ago I was hit with a diagnosis of Parkinsons Disease.

I now work in the field of community health where I run a series of programmes that help people living with chronic conditions have the life they want. I keep my symptoms down to minimum by exercise, relaxation, mindfulness meditation. My guitar playing is not what it was, and I somehow stumbled across the shakuhachi addiction.

bought an earth model 1.8 from perry yung (who oozes humanity and a unique willingness to help) for my Christmas and recently bought a 1.7 80 year old model....been appraised by Perry.

I live in southern Scotland and need help to find a teacher in lowland scotland or northern england.

I can barely get a sound at present.

Cheers all,
