How many organizations have you attended you felt, from the first time you entered, you would be…read morethere for the long run? If you have watched any martial art style movies, do the adversaries suffer the most? You are welcome to number all the various punches by name. An instructor explained to me; "A punch, is a punch, is a punch, no mater what name you give it." This person was and is Dan Insonto. His daughter was being pushed around in a baby carriage, at the time. She probably 33 years old by now. I would tell anyone I feel Aikido is passive/aggressive. You all understand inertia. A body in motion, shall remain in motion, until acted upon by an outside source. Aikido, to me, isn't aggressive until that object (a person) begins to strike. Aikido uses the forward momentum of your aggressor as an advantage, keeping the aggressor in motion, as a directed advantage, like crashing a plane. Should an aggressor come soft, that person will be stopped softer. However, coming full strength will result in the aggressor saying; "Father forgive me, for I have sinned in my thoughts, my words, and what I failed to do." The body of this organization is made up of professional people, from various well groomed industries. Saying this is to explain anyone willing to learn, will have the very best group of trained professionals found anywhere. If you are 8 yrs old, you will be taught. If you're of an "old school," willing to learn, you will be taught, not judged. However, No One begins, without being stretched out in more places than flees on a hunting dog! Do your homework. Come with an open mind, observe, speak with everyone having positive open mind the way the young mighty mights show up, with respect. Give your best and you will get the best!

I have been practicing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for almost ten years now and have been part of great schools and also some bad ones. This is an awesome one... The owner Jason Laine is probably one of the nicest guys you will ever meet and will make you at home along with the staff and other students. The gym and its members may look a bit intimidating at first but do not let that scare you. The whole team is very hospitable and welcome newcomers of all sorts, athletic or not. The gym has everything you would need from a boxing ring, cage, Olympic weights and a large grappling area. I have been part of 3 gyms as a member in other cities and locally plus dropping in on countless others when I am travelling and I have to say Vision is my favorite. You cannot beat the staff or team. Just do not get scared away after the first week and really give it a go.

In the classes, we always start with a warm up. Then a discussion of the intent of the session. Usually there a a break to regroup on what the professor is observing, and discussion of points of emphasis. I also am impressed with all my training partners, especially higher belts i have worked with, having open discussions of what is working, effective and not. Of course the professors are always available for questions and clarification. On a personal note, I am very active 60 year old. I found my core strength is improving and other areas in need of strength and conditioning are exposed for me to work on. I try go get to classes 15-30 minutes early just to loosen up.

He is very patient with his students and makes sure that students learn and progress at the right pace. He pays close attention to each and every student, and knows the developmental needs for each. When we moved to Cincinnati I specially sought out Master Kim so that I could enroll my 5yr old even though it meant driving 30 mins to get to class. He is that good!
