\"phil-pasq\"<\/a>Born in\u00a01954 in\u00a0Saint-\u00c9tienne<\/a>,\u00a0France, Philippe Gouttard<\/a>\u00a0started\u00a0Aikido at\u00a016 at the\u00a0Portail Rouge Dojo under\u00a0Blachon sensei, the same\u00a0Dojo where\u00a0Pabiou sensei and\u00a0Cognard sensei began.<\/p>\n

The first decisive influence to Philippe Gouttard’s practice came from Tamura sensei. He started traveling abroad to follow great Japanese masters such as Tamura, Noro and\u00a0Kobayashi. It was when training with Noro sensei that Philippe met Asai sensei of the German Aikikai. It was a fundamental encounter for Philippe, who left France to move to Germany for 7 years.
\n\"seigo-yamaguchi-and-philippe-gouttard-01\"<\/a>In 1978 another encounter took place that would have put Philippe in the direction of his present Aikido: Christian Tissier<\/a>\u00a0was leading\u00a0a seminar in\u00a0Saint-\u00c9tienne. From that day on, Gouttard sensei never stopped following him and improving himself by staying in continuous contact with Tissier sensei. As a consequence, Philippe was able to meet\u00a0Seigo Yamaguchi<\/a>\u00a0sensei (right), whom he regularly visited in Japan, where Philippe keeps training every year since the early 80s.
\nIn Japan,\u00a0Philippe Gouttard also follwed the teachings of Kisshomaru Ueshiba sensei and Kissaburo Osawa sensei. Although the three masters have now passed, the new teachings at the Hombu Dojo in Tokyo still give Philippe pleasure as he trains under the new Doshu, Seihiro Endo sensei, Masatoshi Yasuno sensei, among other at\u00a0Aikikai.
\nFor 15 years Philippe has been the\u00a0F.F.A.A.A. technical advisor\u00a0for the Rh\u00f4ne-Alpes region.\u00a0He received his 6th dan from the Aikikai Hombu Dojo in the hands of Seishiro Endo (after approval from Yamaguchi sensei). In 2017, the Hombu Dojo in Tokyo awards him the 7th dan and the Shihan title.
\nHe holds classes in France and abroad: Switzerland, Germany, Ireland, Czeck Republic, United States, The Netherlands, Italy and the French islands of\u00a0Reunion and Martinique.
\nPhilippe Gouttard trained a number of high ranking teachers, among which\u00a0Luc Mathevet 6th dan, Cyril Lagrasta 5th dan, plus many other black belts across Europe.
\nToday he continues his life as a budoka after having graduated in osteopathy in 2007 so he could\u00a0better understand the functioning of the human body.<\/p>\n
