- Please describe if you have any experience with other forms or styles of swordfighting.
- My main form of martial arts is Matsuno Kajukenbo with 6 years of practice. I am aiming to gain my black belt in June. My ultimate to is to receive my 9th degree, but I don't expect to receive it in 20 plus years. In that aspect I'll be training for many years to come, and bythen I would have most likely picked up another style, like I have with Batto do. So my martial art career will not end there.

I know you have a great passion for the martial arts.
I still remember the wrist locks you showed me.
I hope you enjoy studying the sword.
I hope to spar against you sometime.
Good Luck.
