Kenneth Morgan is from Toronto, Canada, has been living in China for the past 6-years, and has been practicing for over two decades.  He holds the rank of Jodo 5-Dan and Iaido 4-Dan, and assists instruction at a CKOU dojo in Beijing. In this wide-ranging conversation we dive into the discipline and technical benefits of lifting, and about travelling the world and continuing budo practice in areas of varying maturity. This was a fascinating exploration of differences in cultures, government structures, and the need for patience and resilience in continuing a practice that you love. ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ This Podcast is a volunteer effort sustained through community support.  You can keep it going by: 💪 Sponsor this podcast → https://www.patreon.com/tokushikaicanada 👍 Tip this episode → https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patricksuen You can join the conversation! 👨‍🎓 Engage the community on Facebook and Instagram @tokushikai.canada 📧 Stay up to date → http://subscribe.tokushikai.ca ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ Be notified when new episodes are published by subscribing to the channels: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/tokushikaicanada Podcast: https://anchor.fm/tokushikai-canada
