Hi Michael,

I know Fox Sensei from my other life and he's the real deal. Alpine is not far from downtown SD, but a tough drive at that time of day due to traffic, probably an hour most days.
Yeah, good stuff. I reckon if I moved to San Diego, I'd study the best location to live to minimize that experience, but.. <shrug> the drive to my dojo from San Jose has as it's final stage, a 12 mile drive up a twisty mountain road that has been known to make people car sick who don't get car sick.

I have one guy who makes the drive twice a week. It's all about what you want to study, really.

Personally, I kind of like having that kind of obstacle. It eliminates the casual folk, not that I have anything against them, but I don't really have the space for a bunch of casual students.

Best,
