 Dale Akitoshi Hesketh - 4th Degree Black Belt

Mr Hesketh started his training in the Martial Arts in 1981, studying Judo, Karate & Kickboxing. In 1985 Mr Hesketh started his training in classical Ninjutsu, but felt there was something missing in his training which drove him to search for the deeper meanings within Martial Arts. During his search he came across a book written by Stephen K. Hayes and for the next two years, Mr Hesketh searched for a teacher who could share with him the knowledge which he was introduced to whilst reading this book.

In 1987 Mr Hesketh finally found a teacher who had the knowledge to further his goal. In 2003 Mr Hesketh decided to set out upon a new journey, making the commitment to travel to Dayton, Ohio to the home Dojo of Stephen K. Hayes, who due to his inspirational books had propelled him on his quest to continue developing his understanding of the Ninja arts. 
Mr Hesketh continues to travel across America to study with the senior To-Shin Do Instructors and An-Shu Stephen K. Hayes.

 In 2012 Mr Hesketh was awarded his 3rd Degree Black Belt by An-Shu Stephen K. Hayes and was also was awarded his warrior To-Shi name - Akitoshi - The warrior of the open sky blade.
In 2016 at the Annual Fall Festival in Dayton, Ohio Mr Hesketh was awarded his 4th Degree Black Belt, moving him to be the highest ranked instructor of To-Shin Do in the United Kingdom and Europe.

Abbie Hesketh - 2nd Degree Black Belt

Mrs Hesketh started her training in To-Shin Do in 2007 at the age of 15.  After exploring many different hobbies such as Ballet, Gymnastics and Netball, she knew there was something still waiting out there for her that was the place she belonged. After seeing a poster advertising To-Shin Do Classes she was instantly intrigued and went to her first class the next week. Mrs Hesketh has traveled numerous times to Dayton, Ohio with Akitoshi to study in the art and bring the valuable lessons back over to the UK. Mrs Hesketh now leads the Coaching team in the UK and regularly confers with senior instructors on how to bring To-Shin Do to life in the UK and Europe, ensuring that the standards are maintained. In 2018 Ms Stirling was awarded her 2nd Degree Black Belt and she now ventures to understand the art and life lessons it teaches even further.
