2nd Dan Aikido The mastery of ‘ki’ as demonstrated by Mal Sensei is phenomenal

I have been training in various martial arts since I left school 36 years ago at 16. These include boxing, kickboxing, Brazilian ju jitsui, traditional and two free style karate styles. I am currently training in three arts. Zen do kai karate with a present rank of Nidan, Brazilian ju jitsui which I am currently purple belt, and ki fusion Aikido with a current rank of 3rd kyu.

I was introduced to ki fusion Aikido through my friend and training partner Sean Bowring. I first attended Mal Sensei’s traditional dojo in November 2005. I was amazed at his prowess and I came away with a completely different understanding of the martial arts. The techniques demonstrated appear impossible to the layman but once mastered could be executed by a smaller person against a much larger opponent to overcome them effortlessly and effectively by extending ki energy and taking away their centre.
