I began training in Ki Aikido with Dr. Andrew Tsubaki Sensei in 1995 and continued to be Tsubaki Sensei’s direct student until his passing in 2009. I earned a Sandan(3rd degree black belt) in Shin Shin Toitsu Aikido, and a Shoden in Ki Development, while under the direction of Tsubaki Sensei.
I am now under the direction Koichi Kashiwaya Sensei, Chief Instructor for Ki Society USA. He currently acts in an advisory role between Ki Society International Headquarters in Japan and other USA Chief Instructors.

None of this really matters that much other to give you some background of where my journey started and my basic skill set.
I am hoping to change the paradigm of self defense education and really make it meaningful and about you .
I am not charging for this class, I am hoping however to interview you and record your thoughts, your stories and your honest feed back about what this class gives you . I am hoping to build a body of evidence, that is relevant and assessable to women and girls everywhere.
We will explore, diet, exercise, nutrition, prevention, weapons and technology. I am hoping to take the hype and fluff out of realistic and necessary training .
Thank you for you thoughtful consideration,
Bill
