#086 Tim Macmillan (Kyudo) - USA

Tim Macmillan is originally from England, and now living in La Honda, California, USA. He holds the rank of 5-dan in Kyudo, and is the Vice President of the Redwood Kyudojo.  In this wide-ranging conversation, we talk about starting Kyudo in the UK then moving to Japan on a whim. Tim takes us on a bit of a behind the scenes look at the training of Yabusame and Ogasawara Ryu, and how to overcome a near debilitating medical condition to regain a high level in budo. ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ 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
