Testimonies
"Dear Matt - I just wish to thank you once again for a wonderful course yesterday. With your inspirational teaching you are keeping my enthusiasm for my Aikido development and I know for so many others too. It is great to know you and I am looking forward to seeing you in Salisbury soon."
S – Reading
"Thanks for organising the seminar - I thought that it was the most informative Aikido seminar that I have ever attended - I now almost understand what "extension" means - I only need to figure out how to do it more consistently…"
SM - Glasgow
"Thank you for such an inspiring weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and it seems to be the general consensus throughout my 2 clubs. However, I always seem to go into a bit of a depression after a seminar, like coming down off some sort of high…."
