Re: Practice without tradition

Heya Chris,

Yep. For the most part, similar experience here. But it's a personal twitch. I find 'nihon budo' clumsy. To me (and I try to stress that frequently), budo IS Nihon Budo.

Mix into that the sad fact that very few Japanese really have a clue about their own martial culture that wasn't spawned by the movies ... sigh.

Chuck
