It is with a grateful heart that I highly commend my student of 27 years for this practical guide to the teachings of Master Koichi Tohei. It is my fondest wish that the Aikido students of the world take these teachings to heart. Shinichi Suzuki, 9th Dan, former Head Instructor -= Maui Ki Aikido Christopher Curtis Sensei has been studying personal and spiritual development for over 50 years and he began living at the feet of his teacher, Suzuki Sensei, over four decades ago. His life example as both a student and teacher illustrate, and even embody, a commitment to real training (shugyo). Along the way he developed a deep grasp of Ki principles, which is a blessing for another generation of persons seeking to understand the Way of the Universe.
