JEREMY M.L. HIX Dojo Cho & Chief Instructor
Jeremy currently holds the rank of Sandan (3rd Black Belt) through the Aikikai Foundation, and is a Shidoin certified Instructor of Aikido through the AWA. Jeremy began his study of Aikido in Albuquerque, NM in 2011, and his Aikido has been influenced by: AWA (Aikido World Alliance), TAA (Takemusu Aikido Association), USAF (United States Aikido Federation), ASU (Aikido Schools of Ueshiba), SBK (Shin Budo Kai), NASA (Nishikaze Aikido Society of America), and BNA (Birankai North America). Jeremy continues to be a student of Aikido, approaching the art with Shoshin (beginner's mind), always viewing technique and training as something new and exciting.
Jeremy’s goal as a practitioner, GLA Chief Instructor & Dojo Cho, is to refine and transmit foundational technique (Kihon Waza), while building a loving, safe, and supportive community.
Outside of the Dojo, Jeremy is deeply passionate about the Sciences and manages the Advanced Molecular Imaging Facility at Michigan State University Institute for Quantitative Health Science and Engineering (IQ) Department of Radiology.
