Obviously, Yoshigasaki sensei, who was the head of Ki aikido in Europe, has broken loose from the Ki no Kenkyukai. Does someone have any details on how, when, where, why?
That's interesting to hear, he was one of Tohei Sensei's top men. I trained with him once, nice bloke and spoke a lot of sense but didn't do much in the way of techniques though.
Yoshigasaki Sensei's differences with KNK were not based on technique but on philosophy. He explains his way of thinking in his book titled "Inner Voyage of a Stranger". Click here for more info.
