    As far as I know and was told by his sons, the name was originally used by Inting Carin (of Doce Pares) who was a Teacher of Abner Pasa, who then later used the name when he was teaching in the UK.

    hey there, just to clarify....

    Hello!

    Correction there....Kit and I are apprentice instructors under Krishna. Simon became a level 7 after he helped us get to level 6. So....not really apprentices under Si......

    Thanks

    Mornin lok
    should have picked up that you called me mr blue last night at training :)
    doh.
    was having a good look round krishnas site and he had you down as an apprentice instructor on his affilited instrtucor list which was what i meant with the apprentice thing.
    good lesson last night btw. was speaking to eveyone about the second lesson and most people seem up for it but a bit unsure of the best day to do it, john suggested that we could do a "floating day" and just decide on thursday whats gonna be best for the most people for the extra day the week after.
    what ya rackon?

    Sounds like a plan. Thanks for coming back, as long as you enjoy it. Any questions, ask Kit and I or Si on fridays. I have a couple of decent books on FMA in general and some that feature Krishna. A good book would be Masters of the Blade as well. In fact books written by Mark Wiley are also very useful. What we want to do is to use the money paid for the lessons to buy in stuff like sticks, books, dvd's, equipment, seminars etc. So as we build up, we can do this sort of thing. Money in the kitty is always a good thing!

    Alright Gaz, Lun

    Great lesson last night, it spilled over for an extra hour or so in my garden again.

    I've got some stuff by Mark Wiley you can have a look at.
