So as many of you know I have changed my name from "Andres" to "Zatoichi" or "Zato" I like to think of it as a change of direction from my former self to the person I am now.

As I began my training with my now mentor and Art sensei’ Shogun and Emperor Curtis at the Humble School of Arts and Music I was asked to come up with a name that would embody my new self. After some thought I chose the name "Zatoichi", a name that was made popular from a character in Japanese cinema who was a blind samurai.
