Dear Dave,

To be personally invited by a shihan, is most honourable. If you don't go the you would have wasted his "Yi fen hao yi". Translation: One small ounce of good intention. Go, if there is no hindrance. In this modern world, being a egalatarian society, ranking is not all encompassing.

Cheers.
Boon.
