Introduction to Aikido

Welcome to the website of the Aikido Academy USA.  We are directly affiliated with Aikikai Foundation in Tokyo, Japan, and strive our best to uphold the traditions, history and teachings of the Founder, Morihei Ueshiba.

Our teaching staff offers a combined 100 + years of experience in both training and teaching, and all are certified ranks with Hombu Dojo in Japan.Our commitment as a dojo is to the highest level of training and safety for the sake of our students. We offer  classes designed for the growth and development of each student, in a low risk, non-competitive environment of training. We have classes designed specifically for juniors, teens, adults and advanced students alike.

For us, safety is a mutually practiced protocol.

Feel free to observe a class or two, and when ready, join us in our training.

In Oneness,

Francis Y Takahashi
