Pat Hendricks Shihan, 2020 UK Seminar
at High Wycombe Judo Centre
16th - 18th October 2020
This year Pat Shihan will be celebrating her 46th year in Aikido. Within two years of starting Aikido, she had moved to Iwama, Japan to study under Morihiro Saito Shihan and returned over 25 times.
In total, Pat Shihan has spent six years living as Uchi Deshi in Iwama. Apart from his son and successor, Hitohira Saito Sensei, she has spent more time over more decades training with Morihiro Saito Shihan than any other student and was awarded Menkyo Kaiden in both weapons and Tai jutsu.
While remaining true to her Iwama lineage, Pat Shihan has always supported the Aikikai Foundation and Hombu Dojo. In 2013 Pat was awarded the rank of 7th Dan directly from Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba and was awarded Shihan in 2015.
Hendricks Shihan will be one of the instructors at the International Aikido Federation Summit 2020 Toyko, Japan.
The weekend will consist of a mix of Tai Jutsu and Buki Waza Classes.
We are a very open group and all styles of Aikido and all levels of rank are very welcome.
