My claim to fame, apart from Aidan being a mate of the last erm......."few years" was that I stood in for an instructor who was injured, and Aidan was one of my beginners!
When he reached Dan grade status, we trained under Asano Sensei, and many other high grade JKA/KUGB Sensei, including Enoeda and Kanazawa, in fact, like Chris Hallam, I was also "fodder" in one or two books, with Aidan and Vince Morris.
Aidans punch bag in most of his demos Chris Hallam performed the best katas of Jion and Empi I have seen, a personal view I know, he could hack it with real style and top bloke
trained with aidan c3 yrs at arnold leisure centre c 1984-87. His athleticism and aggresion here also brings back memories...painful ones. quite an inspirational, though pretty arrogant, character. Now has full time dojo in beeston, nottingham. training there was one of my best decisions for the rest of my life.
Una exhibición reálmente buena. Precisión, potencia y rapidez. En una palabra: Shotokan

Really effective! A powerful karateka who is very fast- good to see locks and armbars in Shotokan.

Very forceful, yet well controlled. Asano Sensei would have been proud of Mr Trimble.
