-- PRESENTATION: INTERVIEW GUILLAUME ERARD PART 1 --
Guillaume Erard is a permanent resident of Japan with over 30 years of experience in Japanese martial arts. He holds the 5th Dan in Aikido from the Aikikai World Headquarters in Tokyo. Erard is also one of the few non-japanese to hold a 3rd Dan in Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu, the art that Aikido's own founder, Ueshiba Morihei, studied under the legendary master Takeda Sokaku.

Erard gives Aikido lectures and seminars throughout Europe and he is one of the most prominent researchers on Aiki and its history in activity today. He has studied under many of the most senior masters in Japan and abroad and has conducted in-depth interviews with many of them in order to promote the public understanding of the art.

Considering he is a supporter of Seido since its inception almost 10 years ago, we decided to sit down with him to find out what drove his incredible enthusiasm for the art and how exactly he puts into practice all that he has learned from his masters so far.
