About Tony Sargeant Sensei
Tony Sargeant was born in 1950 in Cambridgeshire, England, and started training in Aikido in 1973. Tony’s first teachers were Richard Stripe Sensei, Haydn Foster Sensei and Hamish Macfarlane Sensei. In 1983 he began to follow the teaching of Saito Sensei, and was graded 5th Dan by him in 1994 and 6th dan in Jan 2003
An avid and dedicated student, Tony has travelled extensively throughout the world to learn and to teach. Tony also studied other arts which aligned themselves well with his Aikido journey, namely Meditation, Yoga and Tai Chi, the latter of which took him to China to study on a personal basis with Master Yu-Xia Fei.
In 1996, prompted by his own understanding of energy and a desire to help others, Tony developed, applied and taught an energy inclusive pressure point based system which proved significantly beneficial for many who were in need.
In 2014 Tony published his book , 'Takemusu Aikido', about his journey and the 'secrets' he discovered while making it. After 47 years of dedicated study Tony still searches the path for O-Sensei's enlightenment.
In 2020 his second book was published. It took over a year to write and is one more example of his desire to keep the discoveries he has made, alive for others to explore. His desire to share his knowledge has lead him to start short courses on meditation in his village.
