The Nine Dragons

Legend and History of the Nine Dragons

Show me a successful individual and I’ll show you someone who had real positive influences in his or her life. I don’t care what you do for a living—if you do it well I’m sure there was someone cheering you on or showing the way. A mentor.Denzel Washington, actor

The following are the current Nine Dragons of the Kodawari Hombu Dojo. These mutually agreed upon appointments last for life (but cannot be passed on from one person to another). They can, of course, be resigned or revoked at any time by either party.

Matthew Henderson

Shuseki Shihan

Chiryu – Earth Dragon

I have “known” Matt Henderson for over 20 years now. I say it that way because in those two decades (plus), we have only spent, maybe, a few hours together. I think that alone can be a test of true friendship. The great Robert Campbell identified what he refers to as a “dark night of the soul”.Michael Davis
