@JodperShinkansenhead I'm based in Yorkshire so a fair bit up the country from London, and have only just started learning Japanese so not ready to travel to Japan just yet though i'm making a point to go there atleast once in my life as I am very interested in the Culture.

@Keitou.

hi again - you can teach yourself both by watching online players such as ayanuhito (youtube account name) who is a much better player than me, and also by checking out printed notation and mouthing techniques available online - the best links i have found are at the taikocenter website. Hope this helps

Hi Keitou.

Best way is to g to Japan! :-) Second best way is to find a teacher in UK if poss. Are you based in London? I know of 2 excellent players in London who sometimes teach. Third best way is to teach yourself - I'll send some more info about this in my next comment.
