I'm a Seattle coffee lover in the Seattle suburbs. I'm a Reiki practitioner and a martial arts nut, and operate "Seattle Wushu Center", a studio that offers classes in Wushu, Kajukenbo, Filipino Martial arts, Tai Chi, Qigong, and Bullwhip artistry. I've been studying for over 30 years & certifications include Kyudo (Japanese archery), Iaido (Japanese swordsmanship), Kajukenbo (a hybrid system), and Eskrima. I love all things of the bladed variety....knives, swords, etc. In my spare time I love to get on my motorcycle with and cruise around with other moto-friends, sport whip cracking, sport target blowgunning, reading, blogging, and meditating. My other interests and activities include philosophy, reading, metaphysics and spirituality.
