Learning Teaching and the Way to Mastery

In 2001 I instituted “black belt choice” weeks into our dojo curriculum– this helped develop autonomy and creativity amongst my senior ranks and helped them grow into their own as teachers. It was an experiment and I liked how it worked and wrote the following:

I was quite surprised by the size and atmosphere of this Dojo. VERY friendly people to train with, especially Lowry Sensei himself. He always made sure we were comfortable, very hospitable, and made himself very accessible. I CAN’T wait to go there again!!! I highly recommend this Dojo for serious training.

Art M.

This is such a great place. Of course, the Aikido techniques are sound, but the people and practitioners are some of the finest people I have ever met. You will have fun and learn a lot about yourself as well.
