He is the 19th Soke of the Koto Ryu and holds menkyo kaiden (full-liscencship) in Gyokko Ryu Koshijutsu, Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu and Kukishin Ryu Bojutsu. He is known for his ability to flow from soft to hard and back again with amazing effectiveness while his smile lights up the room. Everyone enjoys being around this genuinely always happy man.
