Gone Training 2019

Friends, as you read this entry I am probably somewhere over the Pacific right now, on my way to Japan to train.

I had not originally planned to go training this year as due to the nature of the trainings, every other year makes a bit more sense (as you may recall, I was off training last year).  But in October, my Sensei found a flight which stayed on the same airline and left from our homes and was almost $400 less than last year.  Destiny, apparently, was calling.

I will be gone for less time this week, only about a week, but am still looking forward to a very challenging training.  I am hopeful that I will come back with better technique - or at least, what better technique should look like.

In the interim, I have left my usual collection of ponderings and ramblings for your consumption.  My apologies if the responses are delayed.

Have a fantastic week and I will see you on the other side!
