Back in 2008 I
began my blog, Isshin
- Concentration the Art, at the
suggestion of Mario McKenna, for my senior
students.
I had so many
experiences I could not share with them in our classes together over the
decades because their training was always more important. Most of my private studies I had never shared
with them either. Of course I also shared many of our own classes to, for their
memories.
I wanted them to
have access to all of it should they ever find it useful.
As time passes I
found more and more memories to share.
That is what Isshin – Concentration the Art is all about.
This was my
original post - https://isshin-concentration.blogspot.com/2008/08/isshinzanshin.html
But I made all
of it available for anyone to see.
First I do not
believe in hiding information. (Abet I also have an
extensive private sharing’s with them of that which is most personal.)
Second after
finding that even the most personal training they experienced was the result of
hands on training, it was unlikely that anyone would take the effort to
actually work to use it in their own studies.
They got it from actual training under me, not from reading about it.
Should anyone
actually make the effort and work it into their studies, they deserved that
study by their own efforts.
Then another
friend, Jim Keenan, felt that what I was
doing was unique, and he had seen no one
ever do so before. On his own he created a book as a surprise for me,
consisting of many of my earlier posts and then he had it published.

Of course I kept
adding more memories and studies I had made for there is always more to tell.
Today I just
found that my blog has had more than 1,000,800
visitors to date.
