Araki-ryū

I have passed on my lineage of Araki-ryū to my senior students in Athens, Greece. Those who wish to learn my line of Araki-ryū should contact the Athens Hokusei Dojo (see LINKS page). The only form of Araki-ryū that I teach in the United States, is described on this site. Please direct inquiries concerning Taikyoku Araki-ryū from there, not here.

Tenshin Bukō-ryū Heihō

I currently maintain dojos in Valencia, Spain and Athens, Greece. I will not personally be opening any new dojo: there is a possibility of other dojo opening under the direction of my senior students in the future. (See LINKS page for all Tenshin Bukō-ryū Heihō dojo).

Aikidō

I do not maintain an aikido dojo of my own. I do travel on occasion to established aikidō schools when invited to teach my perspective on the art.

Body Mechanics Using Weaponry

I work with established groups in a variety of combative arts, from classical Japanese schools to HEMA working on the most effective usage of weaponry with a connected body. My goal is to meet practitioners ‘where they are.’  Practitioners show me how they use their weapons and what they are trying to accomplish. Then we collaborate on how best to use a ‘connected body’ to accomplish those goals.
