Genryukan attended the Tissier Shihan Seminar in Dartford at the weekend. I managed to get a little footage, and have haphazardly thrown it all together in the hope it is watch-able.
It was a very well attended seminar, I would estimated there were approx 100 people on the mat. Tissier Shihan was on top form, and as usual very charismatic.
Thanks to Brighton Aikikai for arranging the seminar.
Genryukan students have got seriously lucky here. What a coup for our little dojo!
We are pleased to announce confirmation that Robert Mustard Sensei (7th Dan Yoshinkan) is coming to teach at Genryukan Dojo.
This special class will be on Tuesday 4th October 2011 from 7pm – 9.30pm (so the day immediately after the regular class), and is strictly limited to 20 students.
Price for this session is £20 per person.
Places will be filled on a first come first served basis. Once places are filled, we will then operate a wait list in case of drop outs between now and October.
For close to 10 years Robert Mustard Sensei trained as a student of Soke Gozo Shioda, founder of Yoshinkan Aikido,Takafumi Takeno Sensei, 9th Dan; and Tsutomu Chida Sensei, 8th Dan. In 1991 Mustard Sensei was appointed Itaku Shidoin by Shioda Kancho and remained the Chief Foreign Instructor at the Yoshinkan Honbu Dojo, Tokyo, Japan until he moved back to Canada in 1995.
Today he is recognized worldwide as being among the very best Yoshinkan Aikido practitioners and instructors.
