About Mekugi




I was born in 1971 in Portland, Oregon and currently I am a U.S. expatriate living in Kuwana, Japan.


I started my martial arts journey in 1984-85 when I started Sosuishiryu in Oregon. After 16 years of study, I decided I should branch out and I started studying Shinto Muso Ryu Jo. Eventually, my path led me to Japan where I now study Sosuishi ryu, Shinto Muso Ryu, Owari Tenshin Koryu Kempo, Kukishinden Tenshin Hyoho and Hōten-ryū. This may seem like a lot, but the last four budo I study are under the same teacher, so I am not Dojo hopping or bogging myself down too much.

I'm married and the father of three. I live a quiet life as an English teacher in the Aichi and Mie prefectures of Japan. I have a websites up about one of the martial arts that I study and I also have an account at YouTube, where I post many videos about the martial arts and Japanese cultural events.
