Owen began training in Aikido in 2016 after seeing a demonstration by Aikido in Fredericksburg at his elementary school and enrolled in classes soon after and has progressed his way through the youth program in the following years.
In 2021 he started working as Program Assistant at the dojo assisting with teaching the kids classes. Some of the things Owen enjoys about Aikido are the engaging and fun classes, and the sense of community present in the dojo.
He is a currently 1st Kyu and is on track to receive his Shodan before he graduates from high school.
