fingers LEVEL +10 - IN GOOD STANDING
Thanks Jim

As good as Lee was, he really would be out of place amoung the names in the series. These were the masters who founded the mother arts (for the greater part).
I was planning on doing one of Yip Man though. (Lee's first serious master, though he accredits his starts with his father)

O sensei Ueshiba is the one who inspires the greatest level of awe in me. Aikido is IMHO the most graceful and advanced art of the core Japanese arts.
(Karatedo, Aikido/aikijutsu,judo and jujustsu). I was debating whether or not to include Chinese masters or to keep this a japanese series.

I've studied as many chinese systems as i have japanese, but I've allways found the Japanese arts more condusive to my style. Then again, without the added fluidity that Wushu (kung fu) brought, i dont think i would have been half as effective as i was (at my peak).

Anyway, i could talk martial arts for hours, but i wont. Dont wanna be putting u guys to sleep here.

Be well guys
