Aikido

I started Aikido in September 1990. For the past 15 years I have been instructing Aikido, initially at Flinders University in South Australia and for the past 9 years I have been teaching at RMIT in Victoria. Aikido is a martial art that teaches focus, attention and awareness. These are philosophies that spill over into the business world and direct correlation with emergency management.

SCUBA DIVING

I learned to scuba dive in 1982. After working as a Divemaster for a few years I progressed to Instructor in 1988 and began teaching regularly both at Flinders University and commercially for a local dive shop.

CAVE DIVING

After gaining my Scuba Instructor license i progressed to cave diving in South Australia's South East region. After a few years I gained category 3 'Cave Diver'
