RONNIE
NYOGETSU REISHIN SELDIN is founder of the Ki-Sui-An Shakuhachi Dojo in New York
City with several branches on the East Coast. Ronnie studied shakuhachi
in Kyoto, Japan with Kurahashi Yodo Sensei, who was a disciple of Jin
Nyodo. There, in 1975, he received the name Nyogetsu and a teaching certificate
at the level of Jun Shi-han in the Kinko school of shakuhachi. After his
return to New York, Nyogetsu was awarded the rank of Shi-han (Master)
in 1978, as a result of his efforts to spread the teaching of this instrument
in America. In 1980, he received his Dai Shi-han, or Grand Master's license.
In 2001 he received Koku-An Dai-Shihan (Grand Master's license at the
level of Kyu-Dan, or 9th level) from Japan's Living National Treasure
in shakuhachi, Aoki Reibo. Ronnie was also given the name Reishin (Heart/Mind
of the Bell) at that time. |
