Sushi Deshi, 1 year in Japan

What can I say?... I have an awesome life!

I`m a 31 years old French man born in La Rochelle, on the West coast of France. I worked for several years in Paris, in the Healthcare IT industry, and relocated to Australia 2 years ago with my work. When I arrived in Melbourne, I started to practice Yoshinkan Aikido. And here I was, starting my long Journey of discovery of this wonderful martial art. To me, Aikido is a very good way to bring you spiritual balance, and learn to be at peace with others and yourself, not to mention the fitness part. So I decided I wanted to know more about it, and what`s better to understand something than going to the roots of it! It was a tough decision to have a break in my carrier and quit a comfortable situation. Quite scary actually. But on the other way, that`s living the life a bit, wonderful feeling.

By the moment I decided to go, everything was put in place very easily. As my Sensei told me, when you try to do what you want in life, the universe helps you. Well it was very true in this case. There was no turning back possible, no "Yes, but...", everything went smoothly.

You should try.
