I have been browsing the forums for a while and decided to join.
I am currently a college student, and I have also been doing Aikido and Kenjutsu for about 3 years now. I also do some Shodo whenever I find the time in my hectic life. I have grown to love Japanese culture and traditions. The reason I chose the Shakuhachi was mainly because I like the sound of it and I had also played Native American flutes before. I have been practicing since Oct but I haven't had a teacher as of yet. I hope that later on I will learn some other Japanese instruments.
I haven't had the pleasure of having a teacher as of yet, mainly due to not having enough time. I hope that I will get a opportunity to do a study abroad over in Japan and then I will hopefully find a teacher while over there.

Welcome Jason,
When you decide to make your way across the water, drop me a line. South-western Japan is a beautiful place, rich in culture, history and natural beauty. I've found it very easy to make a life here (complete with an excellent Kinko-ryu teacher) and with the right attitude, you will too.
cheers
Jeff
