Taijiquan

I started Taijiquan in 1998 shortly after I joined the company. I am learning forms that use a double-edged Taiji sword and a single-edged sabor as well as Taijiquan. Now I am at the second rank of Taijiquan. I am a member of Yamato Taijiquan Association and managing its website (in Japanese).
