About John Sensei:

John Sensei is the only direct student of Hiroshi Ikeda sensei in the UK who he has maintained a close relationship with for over 20 years. He spends countless hours every year with Ikeda sensei including personal tuition and runs a fulltime dojo in Coventry. John's main interest with aikido is the study of '6 Harmonies (6H)' movement principles to develop internal strength; specifically in how to use gravity and the ground to bring solidity to his body whilst breaking another's balance. He has a good understanding of body mechanics through constant analysis and study of 6H with how it relates to Ueshiba's Aikido thanks to Mike Sigman (the renowed internal arts teacher).
