Jonathan Lewis Sensei from Boulder

Saturday October 22, 2016 10:00 am - 1:00 pm $30

Jonathan Lewis Sensei will return to Loveland in October. In past workshops, Jonathan has focused on themes including body organization, shapes of basic techniques, footwork, and leading/presence combined with using quality of touch. Please join us for another enriching event.

Jonathan Lewis began studying in 1976 at his college club with Steven Pimsler and Sibilla of the New York Aikikai. He joined the Bond Street Dojo under and Ken Nissen shortly afterward. He continued at the Bond Street Dojo under Paul Kang Sensei and Saotome Sensei until moving to , with Saotme Sensei's permission, for a short stay at the Kumano Juku Dojo under Hikitsuchi Sensei. After returning to the USA and the Bond Street Dojo, Jonathan moved out to California where he opened the Pacific studio with his partner Roberto Alvelais Shihan (Karate), which remained open for 7 years. In 2004, after a year-long road trip through Mexico with his wife and two dogs, he moved Boulder Colorado to study under Hiroshi Ikeda Sensei, where he continues to train today.

Jonathan has done training for various police departments and studied a number of other arts to round out his martial knowledge, including Eizan-ryu Jujutsu, Karate, Hsing Yi Chuan, Vee-Arnis Jiu-Jitsu, and others, but the vision of O-Sensei as passed to him through his direct teachers, has been the thread that runs through all his training since meeting Terry Dobson so early on his Aikido path.

All levels of experience are welcome and encouraged to attend.
