At Shodokan Aikido York we aim to have fun whilst teaching the authentic Aikido learned directly from Tetsuro Nariyama Shihan, Technical Director of the Japan Aikido Association. He was the principle student of Kenji Tomiki who founded sports Aikido and was, in turn, a senior student of the founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba.

Aikido is great for improving self confidence and learning self defence whilst keeping healthy.
