I just wanted to introduce myself... My name is John and i'm from manchester, UK. I recently took up Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu and have become absorbed by it and the training, i love it! I train 3 times a week in the dojo and 3 times a week outside of the dojo, mainly practising strikes, balance, distancing and Ukemi on my own. I also enjoy snowboarding, swimming, cliff jumping, socialising/ meeting new people and all aspects of IT. I work in IT as a database administrator/Developer. I have a great interest in Japanese culture/history also and would love to make some new Asian friends.... Anyway that's me, see you around!
