A little while ago an American TV crew came to the Honbu Dojo to do some filming for a reality TV show. Like all good reality TV shows it's a little ‘dramatised’ and at times I catch myself cringing. But, it’s still good watching Sensei in action, and for those who don’t know him, gives you a bit of an insight into what it’s like training here.Memoirs of a Grasshopper
A few years ago, a friend asked me what I’d do if I had a million dollars. I didn’t have to think before answering – "I’d move to Okinawa, Japan to train under Grand Master, Morio Higaonna-Sensei". It was only later, that it dawned on me I didn't actually need a million dollars to pursue this dream...
So now here I am, living in a little apartment above a busy Japanese restaurant barely 2 minutes walk from Sensei's Honbu dojo. I've been training with him daily now for 6 months and decided it was finally time to start recording some of my experiences and "ah-haa!" moments.
