Correction:

In my Blog from Japan I referenced a book by Chester Leibs as "Can Mamachari's Save Tokyo".  The current working title is: Can Mamachari's Save the Earth,  published by Yoshensha.   Unfortunately the book is planned to be published only in Japanese.  Hopefully we will see an English version very soon - right Chester?

I just returned from a visit to Tokyo where I spent two weeks doing Pilates Teacher Training and Master Trainer Workshops. I got back home the day after Thanksgiving and found myself right smack in to the holiday season. You see I had been in Tokyo for Thanksgiving so I had missed all the lead up, preparation and ....Black Friday ads! Heck I pretty much missed Black Friday altogether! I was dazed. I was “Holidazed.”
