Master Michael Williams returns to live in Australia

In May 2006 Michael Williams Sensei and his family had relocated to the Fiji islands to establish Aikido Yuishinkai with plans to build an outer island retreat, catering for aikido, yoga and other arts. However, due to the political upheaval in Fiji, he was unable to realise this dream. Williams sensei and his family have now returned to live in Australia and they are in the process of reestablishing themselves in the Byron Bay area.

In December 2009 Master Koretoshi Maruyama honoured Michael Williams by presenting him with the 10th Dan level in the art of Aikido Yuishinkai.
