About the Guest:

Sensei Zen Takai is the last descendant of a 16-generation Samurai and Ninja lineage from Kyushu, Japan, with roots tracing back to the legendary Hattori Hanzo's elite team. A master of 18 traditional arts and deeply influenced by Zen meditation, Bushido, and Shinto, Sensei Takai developed "The Zen Samurai Way"—a method of moving meditation that blends martial arts, philosophy, and mindfulness. His mission is to share this ancient wisdom worldwide, teaching others to cultivate balance, focus, and leadership in modern life through the timeless principles of the Samurai.
