“This is concerning the Aikido techniques I’m presently teaching. The emphasis is on the relationship between ken, Jo and open-handed techniques that were taught by the founder for more than 15 years in Iwama from 1945.”

“I’m continuing to faithfully protect this traditional Aikido.”

“Now foreigners refer to this as Iwama style.”

“When fighting in Kumite, you must have confidence at all times. Confidence develops from constant practice. Overcome your flaws, sharpen your techniques in which after years of practice you will achieve a state where you can perform your best at all times. Your confidence will also come from having self-control.”
