Matters concerning Aikido, martial arts and things Japanese.
Hosted by Ismail Hasan - Head coach and director of Aikido of London
Ismail Hasan Sensei began his Aikido training in 1977 in London, England. In 1985 he moved to California to train with TK Chiba Sensei 8th Dan, a direct student of the founder of Aikido. As a full time student he received direct transmission from Chiba Sensei and eventually moved back to England. He is the owner of Aikido of London based and continues to coach in Aikido and Iaido. As well as teaching he owns Nolo Gallery online and writes.
Gina and Miroslav discuss the subject of Children and in particular relation to Aikido. Gina has taught children in London for several years so comes with a lot of experience and of course she and Miroslav are parents with their daughter Aurelia. It is a complex subject and how Aikido can be a positive force for kids development is a fascinating subject. The couple also see their own daughters growth and as practicing Aikidoka this also gives them a different perspective in her development.
The couple Gina has a background in Architecture and design while Miroslav is a professional Accountant. Both trained in Aikido of London several years before moving to Spain.
