And the walkers are...

So that everyone gets to see who are actually the people that are participating in the event, we are beginning a series of introductory posts - each walker has written a bit about themselves. And the first one is...Leo! (not DiCaprio but even better!:))

Hello,

I am Leo Keuvelaar and my work is my passion. For 36 years I am practicing aikido and I have the greatest aikido club in Holland. As you can see my I am recognized by the sport government of Holland and we have received out “Fight Right” recognition. People who practice in our dojo’s know that we are well educated to give people aikido lessons.

I am also teacher at a school in den Brielle. One day in the week I give transport and logistics lessons. A lot of my business customers are schools and for me it is important to know what is happening in schools and what is happening with teachers and students.

Most part of the week I am busy with my other passion, my business. I have my business, Keuze education institute KOI, for 12 years and developed from a simple self-defense course to a business with 5 trainers with education areas as:
Aggression management, Communication, Safety problems, different training courses for teachers and also students, Teambuilding etc.

As you can image I am always working but when your work is your passion you don’t get tired.

Because I have a very “physical” life I am grateful every day that I am not sick like the people we are walking for. So with this we can also do something for them. Every year we also organize in my club sessions to make money for charity goals . When you are busy with this charity you realize that you must be grateful that you are healthy. It looks so normal but in real life there are a lot of people suffering from all kinds of deceases.
So let’s do it !!!!
