Sumo Seminar In Seattle

[JAB]

So I have been talking to a few different people about the possibility of getting someone in town (Seattle, WA.) to offer a weekend workshop on Sumo. One of the individuals that might be able to do this is two time world champ Byambajav Ulambayar from Mongolia. Andrew Freund would also possibly attend to offer his insight into the art.

I am basically putting out some feelers to see if there would be an interest both locally, and/or nationally to attend such a gathering? I have not worked out price (though nothing I do seminar wise is over $150 for a weekend), nor schedule (possibly Nov 08, or Feb 09). Like I said, just mulling this over and seeing if there is enough interest to support bringing him in.

Let me know (only seriously please) if you are in the area and would be interested, or if you are out of town and would be willing to travel to do something like this.

Thanks

There used to be an ex Ozumo wrestler living in Seattle, he ran a sushi restaurant and a few years ago dropped alot of weight due to a special water diet. I think his name was Robert Setsugi otherwise known as the Sushi man. Great guy and really enthousiastic , he maybe able to help you guys further.

Indeed he is on the other side of town, but from what I here he is not interested in teaching much (though I have not been in contact with him personally. Anyone have contact info?).

Thanks though,

Jake

Did anything ever get organized in Seattle? I heard of a trainer there named Aaron. Is anyone familiar with him? (Sigh...)

I didn't want to post another message but I couldn't find an edit function. Anyway, I don't know Aaron's last name. Thanks.
