Steven,

Payet Sensei is moving back to Japan. He was at my dojo on Saturday night (Surprise!) and expects to be in Kyoto from April 1st.

His dojo is being taken over (I believe) by David Fryburger, who did the 1993-1994 Senshusei course...and was my partner for most of the year.

Which means it will still be a good dojo, especially if Payet Sensei entrusted it to him. Personally, I can't say enough good things about David.

cheers,

--Michael
