| The Aikido Institute
The Aikido Institute has been providing classes in Aikido for adults and children since 1970. The school is a member of the Takemusu Aikido Association. Ranking is approved through Aikido World Headquarters located in Tokyo, Japan. Iwama-Style We practice "Iwama Style" Aikido. The founder of Aikido, O'Sensei, spent his later years in Iwama, a rural town about 2 hours north of Tokyo by train. It was there that O'Sensei perfected the art of Aikido and built the Aiki Shrine that still stands near the Iwama Dojo. In Iwama, Morihiro Saito was O'Sensei's personal student for 23 years. Saito Sensei, 9th dan, lived and taught in Iwama until his recent passing. The instructors and senior students of the Aikido Institute trained extensively with Saito Sensei both in Japan and at the numerous seminars Sensei conducted throughout the world. Dojo Code Our Dojo (school) Code summarizes the principles that guide practice and instruction at the Dojo: I always look, listen and learn. I bow with humility to receive from O'Sensei, the sensei and fellow students. I do my best, share and persevere in my practice.
