Few regions are fortunate to have as authentic and traditional a dojo as this, Aikido of Virginia Beach, and as masterful and experienced a dojo-cho as Scott Tomlin Sensei. Instead of a simple training ground designed to expose students to various facets of a martial art, Scott Sensei has created a rigorous program based on formal Japanese values while leading students with his commaraderie, zest for life, and unique sense of humor. I consider myself lucky to train in and belong to such a school, where friendship and sense of family bond everyone well beyond the walls of the dojo. - WJB
