OUR HEAD INSTRUCTOR

Jim Saba (B.S., M. S.)

Saba Sensei has been studying Aikido since 1988, from both classical and non-classical perspectives. He currently holds the rank of Nidan (2nd degree black belt) in traditional Ueshiba Aikido; and trained for 11 years under the late Dr. Tom Walker. In 2000 he formed Mushin Dojo in association with Alan Drysdale. He runs a successful Dojo in Deland, Florida where he emphasizes technical Aikido and the use of Aikido principles beyond the technical realm.


Despite having CP (Cerebral Palsy), Jim Saba has become a highly proficient instructor of Aikido, and a powerful and articulate inspiration for all who meet him.
