About Michael Ormerod:

The Intensive will be led by Michael Ormerod, 3rd Dan Aikikai.
Michael began his training in 2005 at the age of 15 in the UK. He has trained extensively throughout Europe and undertaken an intensive training period in Iwama (Japan) under the guidance of Hiroki Nemoto Sensei (7th Dan). In 2016, he began a full-time ‘live-in’ apprenticeship, living with, and training daily, with his teacher Lewis Bernaldo de Quiros (6th Dan); plus also training and teaching in the Takemusu Aikido Motril Dojo in Southern Spain and attending international seminars as assistant to his teacher. In 2019 Michael received the rank of 3rd Dan from the Aikikai in Japan, Tokyo. In early 2020, Michael created the ‘Takemusu Aikido Online Dojo’ (as a response to the Covid Pandemic). His objective was to give people the opportunity to continue their daily practice – practice that has continued, every morning, five days a week since then.
