Meta Con Announces Samurai Dan

Bloomington, MN - June 19, 2012
- Meta Con, the hottest anime, comic, sci-fi, and pop-culure convention to come to Minneapolis, is excited to announced that Samurai Dan, and his wife Lady Jillian, will be performing and teaching at this year's upcoming Meta Con event. Meta Con 2012 will be held at the Doubletree by Hilton in Bloomington, Minneapolis from August 31st to September 2, 2012.

Samurai Dan and his wife, the beautiful Lady Jillian (also attending), are full-time martial arts instructors, specializing in 16th century Samurai arts. When not teaching at their dojo, the Kojokan, they travel across the country performing and teaching the ancient ways of the most famous warriors in history. Their shows and demonstrations uniquely blend history, combative skill, and humor, in a way that will both educate and entertain audiences both large and small.

In addition to teaching at their dojo and demonstrating across the country, the dynamic duo also collaborated to write, direct, host, and star in a 12 episode TV series entitled "The Way of the Samurai." Daniel is also an author with several martial arts articles published, and he is currently working on his second full-length novel.

The pair of Samurai experts join a growing list of special guests in all sorts of genres, including power ranger stars Jason Faunt, Jessica Rey, Michael Copon, and Nakia Burrise, nerdcore rapper and former hacker YTCracker, abridged series creator LittleKuriboh, anime star Todd Haberkorn, and accoustic band Rumgumption. Additional guests are still being announced, and will be listed at http://metaconvention.com/guests
