need some help

[meat]

Hi guys. A friend of mine found a dojo he is interested in training at. The url is posted just below. I did some checking around on koryu.com and a couple of other places and couldn't dig anything up, so I was wondering if u guys knew anything about this guy. I'm not being disrespectful or anything, but anytime I see someone saying they are a sword master from Japan(whether they are japanese or not) living in Sydney, I can't help but be skeptical. Any answers are greatly appreciated.

Crap, the url might help. I'd 4get my head if it wasn't screwed on.

You're skepticism is well-placed. The "Bling flash" photo is pretty much indicative of the web site, anyway, but I don't know anything about him or the organization.

Says it's part muso jikiden eishin ryu and part kenjutsu of the style of which he is soke (perhaps a style he created?) with a heavy emphasis on Zen. Probably not a koryu (did you e-mail any of the Koryu.com staff?) but it might be worth checking out.

Go down there and see what you think of the teacher. If his character impresses you, give it a whirl.
