Yoshinkan Aikido is not a sport. Aikido is the development and strengthening of the body and mind, and the practical side of Aikido must never be forgotten.
The Yoshinkan Honbu dojo has developed the following courses to allow students from around the world to experience Yoshinkan Aikido and dojo life.
This regular class is open to students who wish to train and learn Yoshinkan Aikido in English. This class was designed for the International Community living in Japan. Teachers consist of past Senshusei Graduates who have been Assistant Instructors and are now registered Honbu Dojo Instructors.
This program is open to groups or students who wish to train and stay
at the Honbu Dojo. Groups are able to visit the Honbu Dojo, sharing
and experiencing the culture of Japan.
Students are able to train at their own pace towards their specific
goals while living the dojo life. Students can work towards their next
grading or even an instructor certificate.
This course has been designed for senior students (shodan and above) to work towards their instructor qualifications.
The Senshusei Course is typically a year long intensive aikido course for those who really want to dedicate themselves to Yoshinkan Aikido.
