As many of you may know, I'm a practitioner of many martial arts and extreme sports skills that aid me well in my line of work. But it is not often I meet with someone who is also trained in a tiny fraction of the many skills I possess. Several months ago I received this letter from an apparent fan:
"Hi there,
Just wanted to extend an invitation to join a discussion blog for Yoseikan practitioners. The whole thing started when I wanted to see how many practitioners there were, at least on myspace, I'm pretty sure that there are quite a few.
This site is to share experience, training routines, who you train under, techniques, etc. So come join and bring some life into the group.
Thanks
Abel

So I've finally gotten the chance to write back to your request, Abel.
Experience…aahh…I have too much experience to even know where to begin. My original interest in Yoseikan Budo began when I was overseas in Japan, hunting for Tsukumogami; particularly Chochinobake, a type of lantern ghost. This is where the story gets a little weird. I guess the amount of Electronic Smog (Wi-Fi signals, cell phone networks, etc.) in such a small area tangled rather unfavorably with some of my own PK training (at the time I'd been trying rather fiercely to surface some latent psychic powers.)
I thought I was making progress when I started getting migraines…I ended up having to visit the doctor's office.
The doctor looked me over and thought it was some sort of joke. He prescribed me some migraine medication and told me to take it easy. I insisted the source was psionic but he laughed it off. Of course, my parents wouldn't believe me. God.
Anyway, leaving the doctor's office I met up with Minoru Mochizuki. We began to chat and the subject turned to my martial arts abilities – I was already a blackbelt in Judo, and had become quite familiar with Aikido, Karate, and Katori Shinto Ryu. He ended up taking me in for some free lessons. I started following pretty regularly, and the next thing I knew…I was really becoming powerful.
That's basically all there is to my training. Mochizuki Sensei and I still keep regular contact (although you guys shouldn't know about that – or the cybernetic operation).
Later on I used my skills to take on a nosferatu named Kauskoff in a farm town just outside of where I live. It was great; he didn't even realize I was a master of Kyoe Randori. His form was awful. Let's just say the battle ended with someone getting staked through the heart, gagged with garlic and consecutively beheaded. And it wasn't me.
And that's all there is Abel. It's great to hear from a fan. If anyone else has questions, fan letters, or massive breasts feel free to drop me a message. And this time I'll totally try to answer it faster. Namely if you fall into the last category.
