Ahhhh Samurai must round out his martial training with an appreciation for the fine arts. Good Choice, I might would try Cello. I love the sounds of that mellow low tone.

O god cello..., yes... played Cello for 30 years now.. and I can tell, growing up playing the cello certainly made you refine your methods of fast respons to outer threats... as well as making your way through crowded places carrying an obcjet larger than yourself...

boxing, could be..I would say paitence and endurance is what comes first to mind... but you're right about feeling. Its when you know how to do it by the book, you can let go of it and act on instinct. And that sounds very much like shiai...

Personally I will add Iaido to Atarashi Naginata but first lesson is far away, so I would not dare to mention any ryo..Meanwhile I pray for strong knees... Naturally I long to to add different Naginata as well, Jikishinkage-ryo and Tendo-ryo - but possibilities to learn that is scarce.

I do a little of japanese calligraphy since my teacher in japanese grow up with a mother being an artist of calligraphy... That means back to patience and endurance again..

But reading about all of you lads and lasses here on KWF one realises very quickly - there is too much budo and far too little time ...
