Nothing in Houston? I got hooked on Taido when I lived in Japan from 97 to 98. I only practiced it for 2 – 3 months, but fell in love.
Now I live in Houston and want to take up this martial art. Please Help!
Unfortunately, we don’t have a school in Houston, and I don’t think we even have any former students living in that area anymore.
Where were you in Japan and who taught you? It’s always great to hear from people who have enjoyed Taido – even if just for a short time.
hey i live in atlanta georgia and have been practicing taido for about 9 1/2 years since i was 4 it is truly great…
That’s freaking awesome! Please don’t ever stop.
