Fascinating post. Have discovered along the way that by focusing intention into my question it connects me to the path of the answer I seek. So amazing the power of a question has as much as the answer.

Further agree with your perspective as always being respectfully open to learning from others ~ A lesson in itself ~

Very interesting, especially considering that Yagyu Shinkage Ryu is widely considered a “dead” art (I’d assume the same sort of dismissal our own art receives from time to time).

Was there anything in particular that stood out to you about this system, Sir?

I love the fact you can change from Teacher to student when you see something that is of value to you, so many can not. Over the years I have seen you do this and then be nice enough to share what you learned.
Thank You.

Hello Sir,
It is refreshing to read from a master who still holds to the “Old Teachings”. I find myself constantly challenged with finding ways to keep tradition exciting for my students. As I enjoy the challenge I find many young people who would become so much stronger, mentally as well as physically, through the “old ways” but there would not be support from their parents and, eventually, the student would drop out. Thank you for an article that wasn’t preaching dollars.

With great respect,
