About Sensei Ros
I started practicing Ki Aikido in 1984, and immediately got the bug! I remember how exciting it was to be on the mat!
In addition to attending my local club, I became a keen student of Sensei Ken Williams, head of the Ki Federation of Great Britain. In those days there was no Headquarters Dojo, so Sensei Williams was teaching all over the UK. I made it my business to attend as many courses as possible.
I passed my 1st Dan in 1986, qualified to be a teacher and opened my first club in Camberwell. In 1996 I moved the club to Brixton. In April 2025 I was awarded 8th Dan. I am also a grading officer for the Ki Federation. I am so proud to be able to pass on what I have learnt from my teacher over the years.
