    Thanks Greg,

    Sato Sensei

    Thanks George,

    I was sure it was in the USA.

    Thanks for confirming that.

    Do you know if Sato Sensei taught any other ryu-ha at that TaiKai (Asayama Ichiden ryu/Araki shin ryu etc)?

    Thanks

    Yeah the guy at first glance was a bit of a goof, or as we would say in Australia a "bogan" (like the hicks of the U.S.).
