Thistle Aikikai is a member of the Scottish and Borders Birankai under the technical direction of T.K Chiba Shihan. The Chief Instructor, Michael Flynn Shihan began his study of Aikido in 1982 at San Diego Aikikai under the direction of Shihan TK Chiba. He was named Shihan in June of 2005 and was awarded 7th Dan by Doshu Ueshiba Moriteru on 14 January 2018 during the Kagami Baraki celebration at Hombu Dojo. He was formally awarded his Shihan Certificate in a ceremony at Aikikai Hombu Dojo in Tokyo in November 2006 by the second Doshu, Ueshiba Moriteru. He has also received Iaido Shihan title from Mitsuzuka Sensei. Since arriving in Scotland, Flynn Sensei has established the Thistle Aikikai. He serves as the Chairman and Technical Director of Scottish and Borders Birankai. Thisle Aikikai offers beginner through to advanced classes in Aikido and weapons. All are welcome. Instruction in Iaido , the art of drawing the sword and striking a killing blow, is also offered at Thistle Aikikai. In Iaido, students learn to use the sword not merely as a tool for cutting down one’s enemy, but as a method of allowing the mind and body to become more harmonious with nature. During training, students will learn the forms of the Muso Shinden Ryu Iai as developed by Nakayama Hakudo Sensei, with a goal toward synchronizing their breathing and body motions within the techniques in order to understand and practice the efficient use of the body. The club trains at the Iain Nicolson Recreation Centre, Chryston Road, Chryston, G69 9NA and the UFC Hall, G69 9ND (near Glasgow), Scotland (Phone 01326 631465). See below for a map.

Aesthetic Training Academy

We provide a range of in-house courses in aesthetic medical practice for registered doctors, dentist and nurses as well as hosting reputable guest courses from external providers. Whether you are just starting out in your aesthetic medical career or you are an experienced practitioner, our training courses are designed with your needs in mind. Our emphasis on facial anatomy and hands-on training means you will get the best chance of moving forward to confidently grow your practice. At the Aesthetic Training Academy, we don’t believe in a paint by numbers approach to injecting. We are passionate in providing our delegates with an understanding on how facial features interact with one another to allow you to treat each of your patients on an individual basis. The Aesthetic Training Academy is the first and only training academy registered with Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS). We are working together with HIS to improve standards and provide better quality care within aesthetic medicine. Getting Started in Aesthetic Medicine We recommend if you are new to aesthetic medicine you begin with our Getting Started in Aesthetic Medicine course. This is a 2-day course in which we spend one full day covering Botulinum Toxin treatments to the forehead, frown and crows feet areas and a second-day covering dermal filler enhancement of lips and reduction of nasolabial and mesolabial folds with dermal filler. We believe a 1-day fast track course simply does not give delegates enough time to feel confident in performing these aesthetic procedures otherwise. We are aware that it may have been some time since delegates have studied facial anatomy and physiology so we spend a portion of the day recapping this too and can recommend pre-course reading materials. Facial assessment is a key section of all of our training courses.
