Hello everyone

Hi,

I am fairly new to Aikiweb so thought I would introduce myself.

My real name is Steve and I have been doing martial arts on and off since 1984. I started with Ninjutsu as a Hattori (under 16 years of age) and practiced that for about 2 years. I then moved home and could not find Ninjutsu, but found Judo instead. I can't really remember how long I did Judo for, but a lot of the techniques seem to have stuch in my head for some reason or another

1991 I joined the Royal Navy and along with that Started Aikido with Malcolm Crawford in Chichester. I got to 4th Kyu with Malcolm, but because of family and Navy commitments had to leave.

Now I am back doing Aikido, but because I have moved yet again to the Reading area in the UK, I am training with Jack Poole from Shinwakai. I am loving my Aikido at the moment, only wish it was more.

Anyway, I look forward to reading your posts and writing someof my own

Is Ninjutsu interesting?

Steve!

Long time no see! Glad you've joined Aikiweb at last

I'm happy you're enjoying training with Jack and Marill - they are very good people I'm with Ni Sen Kan dojo in Reading now, enjoying the opportunity to train with lots of senior grades

Hope to train with you again at a Shinwakai course sometime soon
