 Sensei Simone Vanni was born in Florence on May 30th, 1973. He started studying Seido Karate with Kyoshi Vincent Macagnone in 1991. In Feb 1996, when in NYC visiting Honbu for the first time, he successfully took his black belt 1st Dan (shodan) examination.

He then had many experiences in NYC, London, Poland, getting more and more experienced due to meeting may people from different countries.
During the following years, he got the 2nd dan (nidan) in 1998, the 3rd dan (sandan) in 2001, up to the 4th dan (yondan) in 2005, becoming a Sensei. Being so committed in daily studying and teaching this martial art since when he was a brown belt, he developed his long experience in passing his knowledge on to our school students.
