Embodying an Aiki Presence

“Just putting in your time has no meaning. The quality and intensity of your training,
the discoveries you make each day, these things have meaning”

—Mitsugi Saotome Shihan

We are delighted to host Chuck Weber, Sensei and Dan Messisco Sensei in one special co-taught event. This seminar will be the fourth of four high-level instructor pairings around the country under the umbrella “Bringing Saotome Sensei’s Legacy Forward,” sponsored ASU. These events offer opportunities for the membership to learn from highly skilled practitioners whose long term dedication to Aikido includes personal experience with Saotome Sensei from his earliest years in the United States. The ASU nanadan reflect diverse qualities of Saotome Sensei’s teaching. In each seminar, two instructors will work together in a theme-based approach.
