Linda Holiday Sensei in Geneva

---

September 19–20, 2026

It is a great honour and a true joy to welcome Linda Holiday Sensei, 7th Dan Shihan, to Geneva.

For more than fifty years, Linda Sensei has dedicated her life to the practice and transmission of Aikido. A close student of both Hikitsuchi Michio Sensei and Anno Motomichi Sensei, she embodies an Aikido that is deeply rooted in the Founder’s spirit—one that unites technical excellence, sincerity, joy, and compassion.

Author of Journey to the Heart of Aikido, she continues to inspire Aikido practitioners around the world through her wisdom, generosity, and lifelong commitment to the Way. A much more detailed biography can be found on the dedicated page of the Aikido Santa Cruz Dojo: https://aikidosantacruz.org/linda-holiday.

We warmly invite you to join us for this exceptional seminar.

Ganbatte kudasai!
