Mark Grey began practicing Kendo at Shidogakuin of Stamford CT, under the guidance of Shozo Kato-sensei. He has about three years worth of Kendo experience now, and continues to practice four times a week at both Shidogakuin and Koushinkan. He attends school as a junior at North Haven High School, and began his attendance at Koushinkan unaffiliated directly with Yale. His practice of Kendo has brought him many opportunities and lifestyle views that he holds in highest regard, and he treasures his attendance at both dojo and the people he meets there. He plans on continuing Kendo as a lifetime commitment.
