Adult Aikido

I have studied Aikido for nearly 20 years under the guidance of Mills Sensei. In 2014, Yamada Sensei granted me the rank of Shodan. My Teaching passion is to develop our physical, mental, and spiritual potential though growing Ki, our life force energy. We learn to ride Ki within Aikido movement, blend Ki with our training partners and experience the expansive Ki flow of the universe.
