Delightfully, they have continued to be my teachers and my source of inspiration. Along the way I have been very fortunate to receive instruction from Stan Pranin Sensei, Jack Wada Sensei, Mary Heiny Sensei and Motomichi Anno Sensei. Anno Sensei has made many visits to the Santa Cruz Summer Retreat and has been a major influence on my aikido and my personal growth. At the beginning of my Aikido journey, I was motivated solely by a desire to become proficient in the physical art. That attitude was an outgrowth of previous training as well as my personal mindset. Fortunately, after a few years of Aikido, it became very clear that ‘true victory’ was not physical. My journey along the Path continues.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Jay Munyer Sensei ⋙ Sandan (3rd degree black belt) Jay Munyer began training in 1993 at Aikido of Santa Cruz, under the instruction of Linda Holiday Sensei and Glen Kimoto Sensei. Jay has also been greatly influenced by Motomichi Anno Sensei, 8th dan, training with him during his many visits to Santa Cruz. In 2012 Jay traveled to Shingu, Japan, where he trained with Anno Sensei. Jay has also trained at New York Aikikai and Bond Street Dojo, in New York City. Jay Sensei has been an assistant instructor in the youth classes at Aikido of Santa Cruz since 2008, and has served as the youth program coordinator since 2010. He says, “I believe that young people are capable of much more than we often expect of them. Our students constantly surprise me with what they are capable of when we challenge them to excel. It is our job as Aikido teachers to draw out the amazing potential of our young students, while at the same time keeping the sense of fun and play that is an important part of growing up.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Zachiah Murray Sensei ⋙ Shodan (1st degree black belt) Zachiah Murray began Aikido training in 2001. Zachiah has been an instructor in the ASC Young People’s classes since 2015. They have been sincerely influenced by the deeply open, heart-felt, and expansive teachings of Motomichi Anno Sensei and the wonderful, rich heart-mind of their chief instructor Linda Holiday Sensei. Zachiah’s approach to Aikido and to teaching young people is one of remembering one’s basic goodness, both on the mat and in the world. When external conditions are disappointing or confusing, coming back to one’s basic goodness helps one keep their balance and respond to life rather than react. Aikido is great for kids because it is an opportunity for them to realize their basic goodness and learn to live from the inside out. They learn to respond to an “attack,” an unskillful attempt to connect, by staying soft and close, and not allowing themselves or the other person to get hurt. Zachiah says, “When we remember our basic goodness and connection with all of Life, we naturally practice Ban Yu Ai Go—love and protection for all beings. This is the seed I’d like to plant and nourish in the heart of every child.” Zachiah is a minister in the Kriya Yoga lineage and serves with their teacher, Yogacharya Ellen Grace O’ Brian, at the Center for Spiritual Enlightenment. Zachiah is also ordained in the Order of Interbeing of the Thich Nhat Hanh Plum Village tradition.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Jeff Reed - Jeff Reed</image:title>
      <image:caption>Jeff Reed Sensei ⋙ Sandan (3rd degree black belt) Jeff started his Aikido training in 2002 at UCSC with Yoshi Shibata Sensei. He joined the Aikido of Santa Cruz dojo in 2006 and received his 3rd degree black belt from Linda Holiday Sensei in March of 2023. He continues to periodically teach the Intro Series and has recently began assisting in the Youth Program classes. “I particularly enjoy creating a safe and fun space for new students to approach their Aikido practice. I love it when I can be there when someone has an ‘ah ha!’ moment during class. I learn so much from my training partners in that moment, both about my own practice and how it’s possible to exist in the world in a state of joy. It’s the greatest feeling. When I started, I was motivated solely by a desire to become proficient in the martial aspects of the art. It took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to understand the real practice was not simply physical. There is so much more.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Kayla Feder Kayla Feder Sensei, 7th dan, Aikikai, is the dojo cho at Aikido of Berkeley. In 1973 at the age of 9 Kayla Sensei fell in love with Aikido and has been dedicated to growing in the art and training continuously for 50 years. For the first 20 years of her practice, she was greatly inspired by training under Morihiro Saito Shihan, who was one of the founder's closest students. In 1980 Kayla Sensei traveled to Iwama, Japan to train with Saito Shihan as an uchi deshi (live-in apprentice). During subsequent trips to study Aikido in Japan, Sensei trained with a number of other Shihan who were close students to the founder, among many: Kisshomaru Ueshiba (O-Sensei's son), Seiichi Sugano, Motomichi Anno, and Kazuo Chiba. Since childhood she has also practiced with and been strongly influenced by Frank Doran Shihan, Robert Nadeau Shihan, and Hiroshi Ikeda Shihan. Kayla Sensei has taught seminars throughout the US, Europe, and Israel.

The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba O-Sensei (1883-1969) envisioned Aikido as a multifaceted training of body, mind, and spirit in the principles of harmony, natural movement, and "the spirit of love and protection for all." As Aikido emphasizes inner strength rather than physical strength, it is accessible to all ages and body types. Women and men train together in an atmosphere of mutual respect and support. Aikido practice is empowering, fun, and inspiring for everyone. Aikido of Santa Cruz is a member of the California Aikido Association, Division II; affiliated with the Aikikai Hombu Dojo in Tokyo, Japan.

      <image:title>About (Copy) - Welcome to Aikido! "The Art of Peace" - a dynamic martial art practice based on harmony.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Enjoy non-competitive training in a supportive community. Ongoing Aikido classes for adults, teenagers, and children (ages 6-9 and 9-12). Start now! Aikido of Santa Cruz is a non-profit, public benefit, educational organization, serving the community since 1982. We welcome sincere students of any race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or ethnic background. Our Chief Instructor is Linda Holiday Sensei, 7th degree black belt and author of Journey to the Heart of Aikido. The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba O-Sensei (1883-1969) envisioned Aikido as a multifaceted training of body, mind, and spirit in the principles of harmony, natural movement, and "the spirit of love and protection for all." As Aikido emphasizes inner strength rather than physical strength, it is accessible to all ages and body types. Women and men train together in an atmosphere of mutual respect and support. Aikido practice is empowering, fun, and inspiring for everyone. Aikido of Santa Cruz is a member of the California Aikido Association, Division II; affiliated with the Aikikai Hombu Dojo in Tokyo, Japan. Our dojo has deep connections with the origins of Aikido in Japan, the teachings of the founder of Aikido, and the lineage of Aikido teachers from Kumano, Japan.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Chris Dailey Sensei - Chris Dailey</image:title>
      <image:caption>Chris Dailey Sensei ⋙ Nidan (2nd degree black belt) Chris Dailey started his training with Frank Doran Sensei in the early 1990s. He received his 2nd degree black belt in 2019 from Linda Holiday Sensei. He believes Aikido is a lifelong process involving the development of body, energy and spirit. He has assisted and taught beginner series classes over the past 20 years. “I am grateful to be able to develop in the art by being of service to others. Teaching beginners is paramount as beginners are one of the most important parts of a dojo. They bring a new positive energy to everyone’s training and help ensure the longevity of the art into the 21st century. Everyone has an approach and pace which is optimal for progress in Aikido. Listening and observing a student’s experience during a class, helps me offer an individualized path for them to learn basic concepts and movements in Aikido.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Maria Borges Sesnei - Maria Borges</image:title>
      <image:caption>Maria Borges Sensei ⋙ Shodan (1st degree black belt) Began training in Aikido in 2017 Maria first became excited about Aikido after seeing the positive effects it had on the lives of her younger brother, Josh Brown and her son, Sky Borges who both started training in the youth program at Aikido of Santa Cruz when they were six years old. Maria was also drawn to Aikido because of the founder of Aikido, Moreihei Ueshiba O Sensei's, commitment to environmentalism and respect for nature and the preservation of life.  Maria began her own study of martial arts in 2017 while training intensively in Aikido and self-defense at the University of California, Santa Cruz under Yoshi Shibata Sensei.  She continues her practice at Aikido of Santa Cruz under Linda Holiday Sensei, Glen Kimoto Sensei, and Aimen Al Rafai Sensei. Maria is also inspired by and has trained at seminars with Takeshi Yamashima Sensei (8th dan), Mary Heiny Sensei (7th dan), and Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba, the founder of Aikido’s grandson.  Maria has experience teaching adults, teens, and children, and served as a teaching assistant for college-level Aikido and self-defense students at UCSC. Since 2021, she has assisted in and taught youth and teen classes at Aikido of Santa Cruz and is dedicated to helping young people improve their lives by increasing their ability to deal with stress and build calmness and confidence through Aikido practice. She is committed to creating an environment of respect, inclusion and kindness for her students. Maria is also a strong supporter of LGBTQIA+ rights and believes strongly that people from all walks of life need to be treated equally. Maria’s teaching philosophy includes, as O Sensei said, to “always practice” and teach Aikido “ in a joyful and vibrant manner”, to incorporate qualities of nature into Aikido including how animals move, how plants grow, how water flows and the movements of celestial objects, and to remember that Aikido is “ban yu ai go,” love and protection for all beings.  In addition to Aikido, Maria has a background in non-violent communication and environmental interpretation. She teaches outdoor education classes in ethnobotany and nature awareness. Maria holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology from UCSC and is committed to raising awareness of Indigenous history and ongoing presence in California and the Americas. She also enjoys hiking, listening to the language of birds, painting, watching Hayao Miyazaki films, vegan cooking and baking and of course practicing Aikido with her children Sky and Zen.</image:caption>
