Henry,
Personal reasons, but I will share them with you.
Since I do not have the money to travel to Japan and learn aikido there for a few years I want to get as close to i"the real deal" as I can.
I want to learn from a japanese teacher and as highly ranked as possible.

if you want the real deal, you would have better luck study under one of O Sensei's uchideshi. there are 3, that i heard of, in the U.S.: TK Chiba (west coast), Shizuo Imaizumi (New York), Misugi Saotome (FL). and the westerner uchideshi: Robert Frager, Rober Nadeau.
