Hello there!
I'm Boaz, from Seattle, Washington.
I teach English and also am a Salsa Dance Instructor, teaching at the best Latin Bars in Roppongi.
I'm 24 years old and have been to quite a few different countries around the world..I came to Japan on Feb 2006 to learn about Japanese culture and Aikido, and have just recently completed a very interesting 11 month Aikido course, in which I trained five days a week - 7.5 hours a day. Now I'm officially a certified Aikido instructor... Hurray!
I love the Japanese culture and tradition and try to learn as much as i can about it.
I traveled around Japan, visiting places like Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Hiroshima & Miyajima, Kakunodate, Hiraizumi, Matsushima, Nikko, Yamadera (Yamagata), Kamakura etc.
I also intend to visit Okinawa, Hokkaido, Kanazawa and other interesting locations..
Japanese things that I find interesting:
Sado (Tea Ceremony).
Budo (I've been to the International Budo Seminar in Chiba, trying different types of Japanese Budo).
Traditional architecture and Garden designing.
Theater and Dance (Bon Odori, Noh, Kabuki, Taishu Engeiki, Takarazuka etc.).
Japanese Food! Yes, I eat Nato, and Umeboshi, and even like eating Azuki...
-I enjoy teaching English and interacting with students as I find that they are very interesting people, who are fun to hang out with.
Other things I like to do:
Sports (Basketball, Soccer, Gymnastics and more).
Traveling & hiking - seeing nature and experiencing different cultures.
Water sports (Swimming, Scuba-diving, Surfing).
Reading books.
Cinema.
Dancing - professional dance, and also just going out clubbing.
Three More interesting facts about me:
As a child, I trained as a competitive gymnast. training 6 days a week, 3 hours a day - for over 7 years.
I used to work as a professional dancer and performed in different countries.
I Love Japanese food - amongst my favorite: Oshiruko with Mochi, Suki-Yaki, Okonomi-Yaki (Hiroshima-Yaki), Yatsuhashi.
Well, now that you know a bit about me, it's your turn to tell me about yourself!
