Antonino Certa Shihan Intensive Seminars

Felix Valencia ‘09 LAMECO ESCRIMA Cleveland Seminar

Certa Shihan is one of the very few westerners to have had the privilege of continuous Nihon Daito-Ryu Aikibudo study under Soke Tokimune Takeda.

 

His direct teachers also include Matsuo Sano Sensei, Kato Shigemitsu Sensei, and Arisawa Gunpachi Sensei. Certa Shihan has also spent almost twenty-seven years in Aikido (4th dan Aikikai), seven years in Karate, and five years in Kendo training.

 

More of his martial arts history and biography can be found at:
