Starts Aikidô in 1977. Teacher from 1987. Promoted III dan Aikikai So Honbu in 2006.
Organizer of dozens of national and international seminars in Italy starting in 1985. Teacher in charge of “Ryû-no-Ibuki” Aikidô dôjô since 1998. Member of the teachers board of the “Stage des Iles” in Cannes, France, since 2010. Member of board in the “Shumeikai Italia” Aikidô association.
From the beginning under two early students of Tada H. Shihan, XI dan, he has progressively increased his involvement in Aikidô, studying directly under Tamura N. Shihan, VIII dan (from 1985 to 2010) and Saito M. Shihan, IX dan (from 1987 to 1994, three times uchideshi in his Iwama dôjô for some months). Four journeys in Japan for intensive training periods (1987, 1990, 1992, 2006) visiting different dôjô led by students of the Founder of Aikidô including Ueshiba K. Nidai Dôshû, Ueshiba M. Sandai Dôshû, Shirata R. Shihan, Tada H. Shihan, Hikitsuchi M. Sensei, Saito H. Sensei. Attended over 200 Aikidô seminars in Europe and U.S.A., 80 of which under the direction of Aikikai Shihan, such as Saito M., Tamura N., Chiba K.T., Yamada Y., Kanai M., Sasaki M., Saito H.. Among the most important and influential relationships with renowned Western teachers, special places are taken by S. Benedetti Sensei, R. Vandroogenbroeck Sensei, and M.T. Shewan Sensei.
It is under the urge of M.T. Shewan Sensei and D. Leclerc Sensei that he attends his first multi-disciplinary “Stage des Iles” in Cannes, France, in the early ‘90s, together with his brother in arms D. Romanazzi, also an Aikidô teacher in Roma. This seminar marks the beginning of a captivated relationship with Pascal Krieger and Shintô Musô-ryû Jôdô.
After some time of solitary training, in 1996 he ‘officially’ takes up regular SMR keikô participating in the summer camp in Vesc, France, and in a seminar led by Nishioka T.Y. Sensei, Menkyo-kaiden, in Geneva, Switzerland. In 1998 he is encouraged by PK to start a study group in Milano, the “Jôdôkai Milano”, now “Seiryukan Dôjô”. Since then acted as EJF responsible for Italy, helping the establishment of other SMR regular courses in Roma, Padova and Milano. Two visits in Japan for SMR training with Nishioka T.Y. Seiryûkai Shihan (2006 and 2009). Attended dozens of international seminars, including most of the Kagami Biraki, Summer Camps and International Jamborees so far.
Promoted III dan in 2007. Received Okuiri-shô certificate in 2008. Completed SMR and fuzoku-bugei curriculum in 2009. Charged with official teaching duties in January 2011 as IJF Shoden.
Organizer of the 2004 European Jôdô Summer Camp in Lignano Sabbiadoro, Italy, as well as of the 12 editions to date of the “Alpine Budô Seminar” (Aikidô, Jôdô, Iaidô intensive) and of several SMR seminars in Italy.
Apart from ‘unofficial’ practice of a few other weapons schools (including Musô Shinden-ryû and Aiki Tohô Iaidô), in 2009 he formally joined Ryûshin Shôchi-ryû, studying directly under Yahagi K. Soke, and Tenshin-shôden Katori Shintô-ryû, studying directly under Ôtake R. Shihan and Kyoso S. Shihan-dai, both during European seminars and visiting the respective Akabane and Narita dôjô in Japan.
