Thanks for the help, guys. Unfortunately, I've seen most of those clubs. Many of the ones contained in those links are either too expensive, not in Manhattan (by the time I make the commute from...

I've done some searching and believe it or not I'm having trouble finding a Judo Club in NYC (Manhattan). There are a few clubs that keep popping up, but because of either their price or their class...

Awesome. Thanks for the help!

So, shorts and a tee-shirt are ok? Most of the photos I've seen show people in suits... I just don't want to look like a jackass. :)

Yeah, I dropped by his place a few times. Nice guys. :) Since my options are quite limited here in Atlanta, I've been training Judo 4-5 times a week for the past 3 three months. It's fun and great...

Going to a Sumo match at the Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo during my trip in September. Anybody know the dress code for both men and women when attending? I was planning on packing light since we'll be...

lol no, it's ok. I thought I fell down the rabbit hole for a second there.

Taiko drumming is sweet, though. Thanks for the tip.

What the hell is going on?

Did I miss something, here? I'm just looking for some cool travel advice for Niigata prefecture...

Oh, yeah. Done that plenty of times. I spent a night in an onsen made of ice on a frozen lake, high-up in the mountains in Hokkaido during the winter. That was sweet.

I'll be going to Japan to visit my best friend in September. He lives in Niigata and we'll be in that area - anywhere between Tokyo and Niigata. We're planning on doing some white-water rafting,...

Yes, my "ideal" is unrealistic for my location. I know this. Kashima Shinryu is out since non-UGA students are not allowed to train there and Karl Friday is going to be in Japan for a few years....

Ideally, an art that has more than just one focus. Kenjutsu, jujutsu, etc. Beggars can't be choosers though, I guess.

I tried kendo for a bit when I was in Japan. Granted, it wasn't long enough for me to get any real understanding of the sport, but I still don't think it's something I want to pursue.

Iaido does...

Mr. Meade, sorry for calling Sato Sensei by his full name. And my name is not Johnson. :)

There's a bus you can take between the airports. The ride is a few hours. It's not hard to find, just ask someone at the information desk and they'll point you in the right direction.

Yeah, Kashima Shinryu looks very interesting and right up my ally. However, it seems that you must be a student at UGA to train. But, I sent Mr. Friday an email and I'll see what he says. Thank you...

Yeah, it's in Athens. With Atlanta traffic, that's a 2 hour drive. No way I could get there after work in time for the start of practice. Training is also only open to enrolled students at the...

Thanks! I'll look into that. :)

Also, do you know if he's in Atlanta or Athens?

Any other details on who that is? Just emailing some random person doesn't seem right to me.

Any Kenjutsu in Atlanta, GA? Not looking for kendo or iaido.

Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for a legit school of Jujutsu (or related art) in Atlanta. I'n not particular on the style, so long as it's a good school. I'd like to stay away from Aikido and Judo. I'm even open to...

I have been a long time E-Budo member and I've never spam'd the board before. But, this is something I am really striving to achieve.

Your support will directly effect my chances of success. All...

To satisfy my curiosity and to spark even more questions each time I train.

I do it because I find the study of physiokinetics and all the details of the how, why, when, where, and etc. very...

Thanks! I'll see what I can dig up.

Also, your plan to have an "outside, third party, [study] the curriculum and programs offered at a martial arts school, and after finding the school meets stringent rank standards, grant the school a...
