He has expressed an interest in England and the continent.
He didn't do many seminars. He just wasn't interested. He's semi-retired now, so I am trying to drag him out teach the art and show what we have been doing. We'll see how that goes after we do a seminar.

Sitting having lunch with my teacher this afternoon. I told him the events of last night.
He asked me....what did I learn?
I told him that I probably learned more about the Daito-ryu system in 4 hours than I might in 4 years at a dojo.
The down and out? Felt that.
The Sangen stick? Yep, that too.
The yolk!
The aiki body?
The "Drop"
The connected nature...of it all?
Yes...yes...and yes.
As for Aikido?
The hand placements that were lost, or at least, to the masses (the Ikkyo pin?)
Where did they get those incredible elbows? And those beautiful paint strokes?
I didn't tell my Shihan anything that he didn't know, but I do hope these two meet in the future.
If there's a chance to train with Roy Goldberg again, either within or out of a seminar atmosphere, please inform him, I'd be there.
He is a shining example of a seeker that has done, and continues to do the work.
