Markus Frey is from Helsinki, Finland, and has been training for over 30 years. He holds the rank of Kyoshi 7-Dan, was a member of the Finnish National Team as participant and coach, and is currently preparing for the 8-Dan test when the pandemic has sufficiently reduced to allow for travel to Japan.

In this fascinating conversation, we speak about his start in Kendo, the similarities in mindset and reinforcing benefits of budo and other creative/professional practices. 

We speak about international travel, the global community, and transitioning into a leadership role.
