Excellent self defense and mindset teacher, Aaron made an intimidating subject much less so and my friend and I definitely felt more empowered to fight back if needed after having taken just one class.

I have known Aaron for many years and have had the privilege of taking classes from him as well. He is absolutely the best. Great teacher, great colleague and great person. If I lived in Eugene I would be at his dojo on a regular basis.

I have no reservations on recommending him, and his dojo, to anyone interested in martial arts. Regardless of age or athletic ability Shoshin Ryu has many positive attributes that will improve your life in quite surprising ways.
